Solidworks 2004 and nVidia Quadro FX1000 Video settings

I just upgraded to this Video card and am wondering what the best
settings are for it in Solidworks 2004. This card allows Realview, and
I want the best quality and performance. There are alot of options in
the Control panel for the Video settings. Any help is
appreciated..thanks

The only thing I can suggest is to check if you have the right driver, by
checking on http://www.solidworks.com/pages/services/videocardtesting.html
After it is just a question of trying different settings until one please
you.
My PC was upgraded with a 3DLabs Wildcat VP560 and I went through all of
that by trying different scenario until I found one that please me.

I am also thinking about this card. What did you upgrade from? Is it working
well so far? How is realview? Useful? Love to hear something before I jump
onto this card.

Cheers,
Daniel

Have been using this card since July with 2004 and was a little flaky
with the first driver I had but with the 4.1.04 (10/25/2002) driver
has worked flawlessly. I haven't checked the driver download page

http://www.nvidia.com/object/certified_winxp

at nvidia so I don't know if this is the latest one. But you know what
they say, if it ain't broken, don't fix it.

Otherwise here are my settings. I'm also using Dual Monitor.

under OpenGL settings:

Multidisplay hardware acceleration = Single-display mode
Default Color Depth= Use desktop color depth
Buffer Flipping Mode= Auto-select
Vertical sync = on by default
Use up to = 5 MB system memory fo textures

All the other settings are depending on what special things you want
to do with the displays.

Hope this helps

BTW, does the load times for CG texture justify having them? Just
curious. They seem to take a long time to load. But hey, nothin's
Free!
