I finally got a new grapics card yesterday and i will be able to make new videos now when it comes on monday.

YES!

What card did you get Rocket-Man?

[Rocket-Man]

Well sence Dell ripted me off they gave me a slim comp. without telling me it could not be upgraded. So the higest grapic card i coud get was an ATI Radion X1300 Pro. I am not very happy with it eather. And I cant return my comp. because it is past the return date.

I am going to get a Nvidia 8600Gt next week.

Slimline huh? probibly a micro AT board with slim PCI slot openings. I realy don't like the way those machines are designed. *Dell CEO "Durr, let's ignore the ATX standard and make sure nobody can use our machines past a year and a half" I now refuse to buy a manufactured comp and only build my own.

This is my baby!!! (minus the GeForce 8800 GTS card i put in)

How well do you like the GeForce 8800 GTS lforet? I was looking at the 8600 GT, for the price it looks like a good card.

If you want to get the most "bang for the buck",
use this list:

They compare the results form a benchmark with the price.
You may not get the best card there is,
but you will get the best card for your money

So yes Danny, the 8600GT is an excellent choice!

PS: I made my own PC as well... never had any problems with it,
apart from a defective GPU, which was replaced by the manufacturer very quick.

Hi.  I have a Radeon X1900. It runs all programs wonderfully. The only slow up I get with Shuttle is when I try to select a panel from the virtual cockpit while in flight.  But I'm not sure thats graphics related.  Other than that.  I have been astounded with this card.  Its over a year old now, so I am sure there are more powerful cards.  Might be able to get one of these on ebay for not to much.

It was a little expensive but the 8600 should work well. It realy is just a mini 8800 card

I have the NVIDIA GeForce 7300GT and use it with no problems.

I will be able to play once the RAM is installed, it has been a long wait but it got here yesterday.
