Yeah, I heard lots of good stuff about it; on my box however it gives me
corrupted image after some random period. No clue what's causing it. But I believe it's
got to do with an instable motherboard (gonna return it to the store to see if
they can fix it, since it isn't manufactured anymore), so probably it'll run
fine on your box.

I don't really feel much of a difference, and I haven't had the time to toy
around in openGL, but if you play games, or need openGL for some other reason, and
if the drivers work for you: go for it!

ps: nVidia also released the .src.rpm's; just download those, and as root
type:
# rpm --rebuild <rpmname>
The recompiled rpm's will be located in one of the subdirs of
/usr/src/RPM/RPMS. This way you can install the rpms, and if it doesn't work you can 
always go
back.

Remember to read how to configure X properly though, info is on the nVidia
site.

Cheers and happy fragging.
