For et par dage sidne kunne vi fortælle om hvordan man ville få problemer med den nye Vista fra Microsoft, hvis man ville se/høre originale kopisikrede medier på sin computer.
Problemerne er mange, og MS opfordrer nu til at alle med onboard GFX skifter til standalone GFX inden man installerer Vista.
Et større problem i dag hvor mange bundkort har integrerede grafikkort, som faktisk yder helt godt. Men vil man nyde godt af Vista's eye candy, så skal man altså have sig et minimum 64MB kort som understøtter DirextX9...
"The ongoing trend towards integrated graphics cores in office and home personal computers may soon slowdown, as Microsoft recommends those, who would like to install Windows Vista, to get standalone graphics cards due to their higher performance when rendering graphics user interface (GUI) of the upcoming operating system (OS).
?The new graphics capabilities in Windows Vista will require a powerful graphics engine if you want to take full advantage of all the new and cool stuff, such as the new Aero Glass look. You probably want to avoid the low-end of the current GPU range and make sure you get a GPU that supports DirectX 9 and has at least 64MB of graphics memory,? a special article by Microsoft dedicated to hardware requirements of Windows Vista explains.
It should be noted that DirectX 9.0-supporting graphics card with 64MB of memory is an entry-level of Microsoft?s recommendations, which means that higher-end graphics cards are preferable for the Vista?s advanced interfaces, such as Aero Glass, Aero Express and Diamond."
