[PCB_FORUM] Re: Allegro 16.0 Graphics

Hi
 
We've got NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT cards.  They work well.
 
However, I'd still like to get other's comments on a post I sent to this group 
on 24-Jul-07.
 
OpenGL is good, but it takes away a bit as well.

I discuss with hotline guy  couple weeks ago and allegro use now opengl to

Look at graphics cards with good support of opengl (maybe matrox?)

Hi All,
 
We are currently looking at new computers for Allegro 16.0. What has been the 
experience of the forum with the new graphics in 16.0. We have tried a Sapphire 
Radeon X1550 Series (512Mb) graphics card but we are not impressed with the 
results. If the screen is busy then the system is very jerky.
 
What make/type of graphics card is recommended for 16.0?
