As long as it can render the soup, you've got everything you need.

ATI 4850 with 512mb here.

Ready for action!

I wonder if we also need a thread/poll about the GPU (as in, ATI 5870 or NVidia GTX280, but more general, of course) just so we have both halves of the equation accounted for. Although a lot of these cards listed are great in ram and GPU, in the past (as a marketing gimmick) I have seen many cards paired with 512MB or more of slow ram with a poor GPU, which would not do well in SH5. While it may tell the same story in the end, it could be intriguing none the less.

Correct sir...it is all about the soup! I see the team is on top of it! Awesome!

Arclight · 09-29-09, 08:40 AM

Yeah, 64MB should be just enough to render about 1 gallon of soup, so you should have nothing to worry about.

btw, Neal, above post relating to spam removed to avoid cluttering the thread... not that this one contributes that much...

ATi Radeon 4850 ICeQ4 512 Mb.

btw , this article is interesting. According to the tests video ram helps only when we're talking about resolutions close to 2560xXXXx and ONLY in some few games. So i guess the poll is useless. it matters what video card you have but really not how much memory on it.

nVidia GTS250 with 1GB RAM

Simply not true, a res of 1920x1200 with lots of AA and AF needs video ram.

9800GTX+ 512Mb

Runs as fast as a devil seeing Christ.

Okay maybe not that fast but fast enough for me
