Bart Rammeloo Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Hi all, I'm looking for a new laptop. I've got two systems on my shortlist. One has a FireGL T2 with 128MB, the other has a quadro FX Go1000 with 128MB. Which one is better for VW (think NURBS surfaces, high tessalation, OGL rendering, displayed on a beamer as well)? Thanks in advance, BaRa [ 03-08-2004, 12:06 PM: Message edited by: BaRa ] Quote Link to comment
Yovav Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Hello BaRa As far as I know VW uses the GFX card just to accelerate OpenGL tasks, so the big time consumer (RenderWorks) won't be faster anyway. Yovav Quote Link to comment
Bart Rammeloo Posted March 10, 2004 Author Share Posted March 10, 2004 that's exactly the question: which card accelerates OGL more? RenderWorks is processor based (as are most raytracers), but that's not the issue at hand. I have to make a choice between GFX cards, not between processors. Thanks for replying, Yovav Cheers, BaRa Quote Link to comment
