Produktion

Quality of the Amiga compos was so good this year! Not to mention that our production got ranked 4th in so though demo compo :p

this year pc 4k stuff was also very interesting. unfortunately none of the pc stuff run on my trusty nvidia 7100 gs. can someone recommend a budget graphics card which will run shader 3.0/4.0 stuff without problems ?

Even the lower end ATI Radeon cards should be able to, but you will need a PC with PCI-E, as AGP is pretty much dead now.

It also depends on your budget. Here are some I would recommend you look at, in various price brackets:

ATI Radeon HD 4350 is only about £30 and can handle Shader 4. But it is a multimedia card and not designed for gaming at all.

ATI Radeon HD 4550 is a bit more powerful and about £40. Better for gaming, but still mainly aimed at multimedia video playback.

ATI Radeon HD 4670 is a much better card for the money. At about £60 it is more expensive, but can handle games much better and is good for the price.

ATI Radeon HD 4830 or nVidia GeForce 9800 GT are both about £80 and perform about the same as each other and are good budget gaming cards.

ATI Radeon HD 4850 at about £100 is a great value gamers card that is starting to get more expensive but can handle more current games at reasonable resolutions and framerates.

Of course, you could also look for older second hand cards from ebay. Something like the GeForce 7800GT or 8800GT can be found for cheap prices these days and would be great for demos. I have a 7800GT in my emulation system and that has so far been able to run all demo productions I've tried that have been released in 2009 so far.

thanks harrison,
actually I have pci-e, I put priority on mobo&ram when I buy a system, so I think my mobo is good for now (ASUS MSN Deluxe or something like that I think.) I think I'll try to grab a 4670 or just do with 4550 if I fall short :) thanks for the information. :thumbs:
