How Important is the Graphics Card?
Posted Wednesday, November 15, 2000, 2:12 by Trout

Gamer asks what graphics card Bioware recommends:

Let's say I have about $150 to spend on a graphics card, which would you recommend?


We are enjoying great support from NVidia on the development front, so as a matter of course our game currently runs great on NVidia graphics hardware. If I had any recommendations to make It would be to put the video card as a high priority when upgrading a system. The performance difference between older and newer processor is less than it has been in the past, while every generation of video card makes a huge leap in terms of performance and features.

Thanks for that trout. I was just wondering that because I don't have a 3DFX card does it mean I can't run BG2?

I don't know if you need a 3d card. You didn't need one for BG2, but it sure went slow without one. I'd certainly recommend it!
