Hi - I'm assembling a new pc and have gotten bogged down on video card choices. Can someone here recommend a card?
* under US$80 * PCI Express -- motherboard is ASUS M2N-E which has PCIE * take advantage of hw 3d acceleration (optional? willing to wait a bit for an open driver) The PC will use an AMD Athlon 64 X2. My 3d needs are fairly light, I'm not a gamer, just doing occasional 3d modeling. (And this will blow away my current PC even if all 3d is done in software.) I was looking at Nvidia cards, but ATI Radeon seems to be *much* better supported. In particular, it's hard for me to figure out which cards use which chipsets. Some of the models now appearing at retailers don't show up on the Radeon page on the DRI wiki. (So I assume they have no hw acceleration support.) And AMD/ATI's website doesn't really dive into specifics, unless I'm missing something. Any pointers or experiences with specific cards are appreciated.
