I dont even see how a list like this could be compiled...

You can put the best video card made into a crap motherboard and you will still have a crap motherboard.

Bottlenecks aside, it's a handy reference.


You can always go here to get the latest, but think it's still Q4 2009;

So then Nvidia must be in green because all their cards are so eco-friendly?

On this list, what is the lowest ranking graphics card would you need for completely smooth game play at 1024 time compression with a mod such a GWX installed?

Well, the time compression has almost nothing to do with the graphics card, that is pretty well completely processor-dependent.

I would say the absolute cut-off point for any version of SHIII would be around #174. With compromises of course. Better to start at around #120.

But remember that both RAM and especially processor speed are also important. Once you get into higher-end video cards, say above #70, the choice of card will make very little difference at all, but choice of processor will determine the real upper limit for your performance.

Thanks for that, iv just ordered a PNY Geforce GT240 1GB.
Im running a 3.2ghz Pentium D duel core with 6GB ram (even though windows only detect 3.5gb).
Do you think the specs are good enough to run SH3 with GWX nice and smooth both at maximum time compression and when attacking ships in port?
