Fastest Video Memory?
 

I want to upgrade my shared video memory to the fastest possible.

What is the boards recommendations on best video memory?

Currently, my notebook machine is running ATI RADEON® XPRESS 200M IGP - 128MB DDR shared video memory w/ 1.2G 333MHz DDR System. Ive got one memory slot open.

SH3 runs competently but struggles with any kind of adverse weather, or too many planes show up, particularly B24s.

I want to be able to shake my fist in the Liberator's face, & get away with it.

Any help?

Well, I would never _share_ video memory. Video is special in gaming. Get a notebook (or a desktop perhaps) that has it's own video memory. Generally speaking NEVER SKIMP ON THE VIDEO CARD.

P.S. It's probably not a memory issue - yer video card is probably weak.

P.P.S. Wait - both are true - weak card, weak memory arrangement. And you might have a driver problem. DONT SKIMP ON THE PATE!

Gee Thanks on that Suggestion
 

Gee thanks on that suggestion. I will immediately trade in my use it for other criteria besides gaming notebook based on your post.

Did you somewhere in there actually answer my question.

Shees - you must be that other captain I had to scrape up off the mens room floor.

Har. Well. My suggestion was that

YOU SHOULDN"T SHARE VIDEO MEMORY. Goddamnit.

You might be able to get some dual channel action going to make the whole system better...but..it's a laptop, so it's totally inflexible and designed for other things. On the other hand, my work laptop runs SH3 a bit better than my desktop which (when she was commissioned 2 yrs ago) was dirt cheap. Save yerself about 1500 bucks and buy a decent gaming rig. For christ's sake. And for the sake of that captain in the bathroom...chill.
