Hi everyone got a Q ... Am running Second Life and well as much as I love my
mac, I think I need to upgrade the video card that it came with .. But I
have no idea what is out there not what my comp will take (k I know I can
ask the place I got it, but prefer not to right off the bat).
Also what price am I looking at? I've got a non-intel Dual 2.3 GHz PowerPC
G5, with 3.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM and close to a Tera Bite in HD space. But only
256MB VRAM .. And from what I am seeing/hearing I need 512 MB of VRAM to run
Second Life at optimal (as it is I have to run it at a lower scale or it
wont draw right and other stuff).
Second Life is a online virtual world, that runs via a application viewer
that connects to a server(s) and hosts the virtual world.
Help anyone, please.
