My experience with video cards is if you have a card that does not fully support your applications full functions and you don't have a different card that does fully support your applications then you most likley won't ever even know that your missing some functionality...
because some times the less capable card will cause some applications to report to you on the screen that your card does not support all functions, and sometimes you won't get any hints at all that your missing functions...
and sometimes the effects you want to use are greyed out...

Then when you work on someone elses workstation that offers full support from a better card, then you see how the applications are supposed to work.

My station with a ATI card allways reports non-supported functions that I never see on my station with the NVidia card...
