Graphic Card - information needed urgently.
-
Hello everybody
I have a Pentium Core2 duo 1.8 GHZ with on-board Intel Extreme Graphics Card and with 2 GB DDR2 RAM.
There is an offer right now for NVIDIA Quadro FX 1500 card with Adobe Photoshop CS2 full suite bundled. This is a limited time offer.
Will there be a marked difference in the performance of SketchUP with this card?
I am not too keen on the Phtoshop bundle.
Advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Someone gave me this link in a similar post hopefully it can help, generally on baord GCs arent particularly great, i upgraded from my on board to an Nvidea 7900 and the difference is huge, on SU i can get a great anti aliasing (which can be handy when u want straight SU renders) also i can run two monitors at a high resolution with no problem
hope this is of use

Thank you for the quick reply. The card you have mentioned - Nvidia 7900 - is it Quadro or GeForce?
With regards

The Nvidia 7900 is a Geforce.
You will certainly see an improvement if you upgrade, but it is hard to measure and say how much.
I would personally never use onboard graphics unless you just surf the net.
Always better to have a dedicated gpu. -
Thanks a lot for the replies.
I shall certainly go for one.With regards
