Hi,
I am a debian user and I am looking to buy a new computer (I will build
it).
I simply wonder if it is better to take a graphic card with an ATI or a
NVIDIA chipset.
Can someone please give me an advice ?

It would help if you told us:
1.  Your budget.

<= ~$150
2.  What applications you plan to run.

Some office applications, no games, max HD video. I actually have problems with fast forward (up to a frozen picture...)

3. How many monitor(s) you have (or will buy) and their interfaces, resolution(s), color depth(s), and refresh rate(s).

I have 2 ; a newer (hdmi, dvi, vga) and an old one (no hdmi, vga is of course sure, and perheaps a dvi (need to check, I'm not at home)).

4.  Your preference for open-source vs. proprietary drivers.

I prefer open source, it's is easier to install/remove.
I never understood how to remove a driver installed by # sh something.run
5. How much effort you are willing to put into keeping the video device driver(s) current.

If I can only "apt-get upgrade", I will not be hurted :) (And I am quite sure to take an AMD CPU)
