ATI 9550 + Debian 32r2??


Hi there..
it seems that the message didnt post XD...
so... lets see if i can write it all down again...
(sorry for my english... xD)
Im going to install Debian 31r2...
and, im going to buy a new graphics card...
i have theese ones in mind:

Ati Radeon 9550, 256 mb, 128 bits....... pcfactory.cl/ficha_producto.php?id_producto=2359
Nvidia Geforce 5500, 256 mg, 128 bits... cintegral.cl/index.php?op=ver&cat=14&prod=155

i've heard that, without the "linux drivers" issue, the 9550 is the best one...
but... i want to play in linux... xD...
so...
is it possible to get the 9550 running in linux? or should i stick with nvidia?
and... without the drivers issue in mind... which one is the best card?
