Well, I'm going to be honest and yes I'm a bit objective, Nvidia does
work quite a bit better than it did in the past as of late, but AMD
still has the best graphics and compatibility, hands down.
I have to side with you on the latter too, I would never recommend
Nvidia to anybody coming to Linux, I would always point them to the AMD
that is a generation behind (because it's cheaper but still plays very
well.)
