VTK uses opengl under the hood. It will be compatible with any card
which supports accelerated OpenGL.
There are also some volume rendering cards that, IIRC, are used by VTK

On a linux machine, I would stick to nvidia or ATI. I've personally
never used ATI's products so I can't comment on them, but nvidia is
pretty good about drivers / support.
Just my $0.02 though.
