NVidia confusion...

["Stephen Adler" <user=65@nabble.blu.org>]

 Fedora core 8 is about to come out, and it usually takes about a week of 
tinkering to upgarde to a new linux release. (I install from scratch, 
usually rework my disk drive setup, then tinker around with all the 
detailed features like video card drivers, pluggin's, learning you apps 
which go with the new release (virtual computing anyone?) etc. etc.) So 
I'm taking this opportunity to upgrade my desktop.... 

I've become enamored with Nvidia and as I look for the next nvidia card 
for my new system, I suddnely relized that I don't think there is such a 
thing as a "nvidia proper" product, but rather, a bunch of other 
companies, xfx, evga, asus, bfg) that make the video cards. Now... does 
this mean that the nvidia driver that I download from nvidia.com works 
on all these manufacture cards? 

A second question... which nvidia would you get?
