i'm curious if Zorin will recognize my ATI R9 280X gpu after install or would i have to get the drivers from amd?

Without looking at the list, it's likely that one of the default drivers will work with it.
But for your gpu to really do it's job it may be wise to go looking for the current driver.
AMD has a version of catalyst for linux, so you may as well install that even if zorin runs with it.

Having had the onboard graphics and nvidia play up with proprietary drivers, stick with nouveau - its all you ever need!
