Just wanna knoww if VGA card plays a big part in performance of programs like PhotoShop/Flash/Dreamweaver/FrontPage etc?

My 9700pro just died on me..
Thinking of getting a cheap backup
e.g
Geforce 2 Ti200
GF4 Mx MX4000
Fx5200

Will these lower end VGA makes these program runs slower oro uunable to run?
Holiday time for me, wanna use my free time to "explore" these program more

an geforce fx5200 is sufficient enough to run those program la except if u are using those 3d design modeling software.

5200 ...

well, how bout those TNT32mb or Gf2 / Gf4?

erm, it play HUGE role if it's 3D. but most graphic u at is on 2D. depending on the resolution on ur monitor, anything at 64mb Vram IS sufficient for 1280x1024. (even 64mb on dual display @ 1280x1024 also no prob.)

if it's 3D. i do my 3D rendering using my lappie with X700 then my pc with 9700pro.

Any card, TNT2 or better is more than enough.

Using a fast CPU (3ghz or more) and adding RAM (1GB or more, preferably 1.5/2GB) will speed up photochop n related apps.

ed0gawa， i got a Geforce 2 MX400 64mb DDR VGA which dismantle from my P3 system last year, still in good condition but i think you have to download the driver from somewhere coz my cd hilang d. FOC for you if u can manage to come sunway hehe.

A Geforce 4 would be enough... Geforce 2 is fine too but its kinda old already.

kennexe

damn nice of you

But now no need your GF liao ..cos i selling my PC ... going to assemble a new pc

Thanks for the offer

on my 2.1ghz AXP. 1GB vs 512mb RAM = a lot of difference.

oh , btw.. thanks for all the input..

looks like ram is more important
Gonna get my self 1GB to avoid stupid lags and crashing
