Graphics in laptops...again

Discussion in 'Pro/Engineer & Creo Elements/Pro' started by Bjorn Ljungdahl, Oct 7, 2004.

  1. Hi,

    I know there have been many questions regarding this, but
    I haven't found any regarding HP's (which are my choices)
    So I wonder anyone have had experiences with the following
    machines/graphics.

    HP nw8000 with ATI Mobility FireGLTM T2 or
    HP nc8000 with ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 Pro.

    The reason I'm asking is of course that there's a price
    difference. The FireGL is a bit more expensive but is
    the 9600Pro capable of full use in ProE? Cheaper
    NVidias for example don't have the full OpenGL
    capacity so ProE will choke when to many windows
    where open.

    regards
    Bjorn

    Bjorn,

    Nvidia Geforce, and ATI Radoen, have similar limitations with multiple
    windows. Of the two, the Geforce chips have fewer "other" problems.

    Since it's a laptop, and you can't upgrade or change it, don't fart around.
    Get the FireGL chipset.


    Regards
