I'm running FC5 test 1 with modular X and notice no real differences 
between the monolythic version for either a radeon or an Intel 815. You 
might need to have some programs upgraded also, other than just xorg.
If you really want to try to upgrade to modular X, you will most likely 
need the below list of packages.

This may or may not happen to you on an attempt. I ended up not getting 
the driver for my video card (the drv-ati rpm) when pulling in xorg-x11 
modular packages. I had to pull in the rpm then X was functional. I 
tried this wihout any xorg-x11 rpms installed as base though.
