New Graphics Card for Dell OPTIPLEX GX620
Greetings,
I am looking for a new graphics card for the Dell I use at my current
job for doing graphic design work. I am using a Dell OPTIPLEX GX620
that has the default "Intel® 82945G Express Chipset Family" or
"Integrated Intel Media Accelerator 950" (?) graphics card installed.
Using Adobe Illustrator's 3D Effect is bringing this machine to its
knees, not to mention every day Photoshop tasks. I looked on the Dell
Web site and found the 256MB ATI Radeon X600 as an upgrade option.
Do you think the 256MB ATI Radeon X600 will be adequate, or should I
opt for something better?
Hopefully a better card will increase productivity without needing to
get more RAM, which I currently have 2GB of. I've never had to buy a
graphics card for a PC before, so any advice would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks.
