Re: [PyOpenGL-Users] Good graphics card for OpenGL

[Reto S. <rsp...@no...>]

In my opinion you can just use any 3d card around (nvidia or radeon). 
Depending on how much you want to spend, what output you need (vga, dvi etc.) 
you have to make your own desicion.
This "VGA Card Buyer's Guide" may help you.

(my last info was that a geforce 5600 is of good price / performance value, 
but this may have changed in the last months)

Nvidia runs well on linux & windows. As i havent had any radeon cards jet i 
cant tell how well they run (under linux).

For recommendations on professional 3d cards (1000$ to 10'000$) you will have 
to ask someone else...
