Well I built a PC for windows apps and gaming, so that is what I did. I ended up getting a GTX 260 video card, and I run all games on the highest settings at the highest resolution. Giving Dragonage Origins a run on my PC now as we speak.

I've flashed a few PC cards in my time for Macs, and for the most part they have worked out rather well. Haven't done it in a while and it requires a PC to do it, plus you have to have two video cards. One video card to boot from and of course the second one to flash.

As far as your suspend idea, well I am not sure how to do that. You can look at some system binaries maybe that help deal with power, but you would have to be able to control the EFI some how. Since the EFI is what helps the machine boot.

I am at a loss on your question, sorry I could not be of more help.
