I run a a Leadtek A350 which is a Nvidia 5900XT with 128mb.

With the binary drivers from Nvidia this card is very easy to have running under linux - plus I think it performance with OpenGL games is better under Linux then Windows

This card is an Inno3D GeForce FX 5900. It has been flashed with the Ultra's BIOS to achieve higher clock speeds.

Works perfectly with Kubuntu. Just have to install the drivers to get the full performance, instructions on the Ubuntu Guide

(also works perfectly on Ubuntu 5.10)
