What video card/chip do you use?

I'm asking because I'm redoing post #1 on my dri thread, and would like to organize it based on the videocard/chip used.

Mine is:
Nvidia 9600GSO
Nvidia 8400GS
Nvidia 7300GT
Nvidia Integrated 6150

Three different machines, one with an AMD HD3450, one with a radeon x850, and one with a radeon x1900. I only buy cards for which there are open source drivers (and, actually, the HD3450 ended up in my possession before the r600 driver was in a usable state, but it's worked out well).

I'm with Adamk75 on this one, ATI X850 & ATI X1650.

Both work great with free drivers.

arrrgh, I'm an idiot, voted for integrated ati rather than intel by mistake! Is there a way to recast my vote?

My old laptop was integrated ati and it's still alive, but not used much. Also got two desktop machines with nvidia cards (GeForce 3 Ti200 and 9500GT).

Mostly I use whatever can be had for 2$ from the 'puter recycler, but I have an intel945 in one box -wish I could get one of those 2$ jobbies to work there, but the BIOS won't let me...
