I'm about to order my new system when I found out that my XFX video card wouldn't be available until a month from now.

They recommended I swap my video card for an ASUS 8600GT. I looked on their site and found the ASUS 7300GT is significantly cheaper. According to another forum post, the 7300 GT is a good non-gamer card for things like Beryl graphics.

What do you think? The 8600GT costs about $30 more, but I can't find any reviews, positive or negative.

Obviously, Linux compatibility is a critical factor in making my decision.

the 8600 GT should work just fine.

the 8600gt should work just fine as would the 7300gt. I use the 7300 gt quiet solution no complaints at all runs cool even when playing games. Note I am not a heavyweight gamer!
