I just saw in the news that you complain about your "onboard gfx", what is it (brand/type)? And do you have another videocard or thats the only one? :P

'another video card'

thats just the point. its not a video card-- its ONBOARD VIDEO. built into the motherboard. which usually sucks.

I currently work with one of the famous 'S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR'.
Of course, that's not my only pc, and I'll exchange the videocard soon. :)

This is a forum, so if you only want one specific person to answer, use Personal Messages. It's the link at the top that says "You have no new messages" at the top of the screen.
Crud, how do I do this again?

niko - do you have a pc with a dx9 compliant board (like a newer nvidia or ati?) - i am in the developer program of nvidia so could get one at low cost - and i am sure some of us here would sponsor - i imagine you do have one with a top card but if not we should remedy that situation :)

i am running on a dell laptop with an ati card in it (64MB radeon) - its fully dx9 compliant - and the laptop is very lightweight - i imagine by this time next year the mobile cards will be swappable and matching the desktop units!

No dx9 board currently. :) Hey, the idea of the nvidia developer program is nice, how did you get in there? Hm, but maybe I'll by a new ATI-Card soon.. lets see.. :)
