[opensuse] Good PCI-Express video card for around US$150 or less
Hi- As the subject says, my new motherboard requires a PCI-E video card. What is a good performing PCI-E video card that's well supported on openSUSE for under US$150? No gaming here, just compiz effects. Thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Any pci-e nvidia card will do wonderfully - as long as you have no religious objections to binary drivers. Joe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I don't know about compiz, but any motherboard with a standard PCI slot can use a standard PCI video card. That means great cards from Matrox and others from last century, generally available on eBay for little more than shipping cost, make an excellent low budget subsitute for PCI-E. -- "Let your conversation be always full of grace."

I'm very happy with my nvidia based "Micro-Star International GeForce 7300 GS" 256mb -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 OpenSUSE Linux http://en.opensuse.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
