Hello all.
Can anyone provide advice on the best video card to purchase in order to fully appreciate both the photos and videos on this website? I already have the top monitor (Eizo CE240W) which provides astonishing quality photos in their full size glory. However, I am not sure if my three year old video card (ATI 9800 Pro AGP) is allowing me to experience the clearest, sharpest, jitter free movie downloads.
Several months back I downloaded the NVIDIA purevideo codec and this seems to have made a significant improvement in the picture. In addition, the increased bitrate of the downloads has made an even more significant improvement. Recently I purchased an ATI 1600 with the AVIVO technology and this seemed to improve the picture slightly. However, this card recently died and I am now looking at getting a whole new rig with PCI-E, Core 2 Duo etc.., and of course the all important GPU. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Rich
