If you do need more power, I personally would go with AMD a generation

I can't use a transparent xfce4-terminal with
$ grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
### Available Driver options are:-
Driver "radeon"
#Driver "nvidia"
#Driver "nv"
#Driver "nouveau"
#Driver "vesa"
resp. I can, but it's very slow, when moving the window etc.,
fortunately I don't need transparency. Google Earth is ok.
The proprietary driver doesn't work with current versions of X.
I don't have this issues with NVIDIA.
