    Re: Help deciding on a graphics card for compiz fusion

    Thanks so much for helping me find the right graphics card, and for the link to setting it up. I noticed the card I'm thinking about getting has openGL 1.4.. Is that going to limit what I can do with compizfusion? I want to be able to use compizfusion fully.

    OpenGL is fine at the moment.

    Ok looks like thats going to be the one.. Do you see one in this agp section of newegg that would be a better choice? Just want to make sure I'm making the right decision before I buy it.

    It's very much 'you pays your money and takes your choice'. I haven't heard of Zogis cards (not here in the UK). Again it may be worth googling around for independent tests and recommendations on the cards. The cards seem to be quite cheap (in the UK we would probably pay the same amount in pounds, so twice the price).

    Thanks again I'm just going to go ahead and get that chaintech one and be done with it. I'm sure it will work just fine after reading that installation walkthrough you linked me to. I appreciate all your help!
