my pc was build by me; I have today an Intel Pentiun 4-833FSB = 3.40GHZ;into a Asus P5VD-1 (slot 775/Intel LGA775 Pentium 4 CPUDual-Core CPU VIA PT880 Ultra Dual-Channel DDR400/333PCI Express & AGP8X combo solutionSATA with RAID 0, 1, JBOD) and running with my old AGP INNO NVIDIA 5600FX 128mb...using as well two 17' monitors('cause I can't afford those HUGE ones..)and my screen resolution is 1280 by 1024 pixels in each one..in case you're talking about that..can't find out which chip has in it...but I believe Asus is working with Ati X series..not sure.
OH!!! yeah! you're right..can't got to 2560x1600 resolution..gives me 'the out of range'...so I can't go for that right? But if I use the actual resolution I do today would be ok I guess..still I'm missing nothing in it's perfomance.. I have to search again for a more suitable to what I use today as softtware..since was already and again told here that Poser does not use any of those NEW TECH in the videos cards..have you any real good advise on that? now..
Since Nov.2004 I'm trying to buy a new video card and still has not yet done...ca'nt decide if I go for a old model Radeon, that today is quite cheap or those X series that will give me more speed (PCI E)in the rendering/ huge files in Photoshop etc..
