Since I'm experiencing big problems getting my onboard intel i965G to display 1680x1050 i consider to get a new graphics card. Now, does anyone have experience with some PCIe graphics card that is able to display this resolution in Linux? Would be nice if the card was dual headed. And it should be reasonable priced. :)
Thanks for suggestions and hints,
There are more choices than you can shake a proverbial stick at. One thing you haven't stated is what you want from such a card. Is it only for normal desktop use? or are you wanting it also for OpenGL stuff.. like gaming and Compiz-Fusion? Both nVidia and ATI are usually good choices. nVidia has historically been slightly less problematic getting the binary drivers installed and working. With ATI opening up their drivers, this may change in favor of ATI in the near future... who knows. For cards, you can keep the expenses down and pick up an older nVidia 6600GT. The performance is quite good in single or dual head. I used a 6600GT for a long time and recently upgraded to a 7600 (even this card is relatively inexpensive now) . I'm sure others can chime in here with suggestions for ATI and other brands. C -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
