Another day, another video board -- that's the way it seems to be lately. I remember when you had a choice between a number of different chipset makers, and you actually had to think what chipset you wanted on your next video card. Lately, due to faltering companies and consolidation, the question seems to be "which Nvidia-based board do I want to buy?"
This does not mean Nvidia is the only manufacturer that supports Linux -- there is support with Matrox and ATI cards, even 3D support -- but Matrox is not targeting the gaming market and ATI has not taken an active role in driver development for Linux. This leaves Linux users looking for the best performance looking at Nvidia cards, and wondering which to buy, because there are so many variations by so many manufacturers.
