If you have a low budget nvidia all the way. Current uptime with X on desktop is 45 days and X hasnt crashed ever since i ran it :) and yes good movie and dvd playback too Well, which drivers do you use? How often do you use OpenGL applications? My NVidia works okay with "nv" driver (no hw accel) from XFree86, yes, that driver is stable indeed. But, NVidia's own drivers are unstable. Maybe your results are better, because you have other card, than mine.
