No, you wouldn't need a card like that. The one reason to go with nvidia is
the linux support they offer. Their drivers are the best!!

The quesiton I was trying to ask is if I do not play games and use my
box for development, internet, blah, whay would I need an NVidia or
ATI card?  I'm just curious if these cards provide anything over what is
onboard most PC's purchased today for the casual user.
