Rendering for the screen is not the bottleneck. Downloading an image and/or rendering it internally are *far* slower than the on-screen rendering. A high-powered graphics card only makes an improvement for things like PhotoShop, 3D rendering applications (e.g. CAD), and gaming where millions of pixels have to get calculated for every frame and the frames need to be refreshed frequently. Rendering a static graphic image is not accelerated by a better graphics board.
My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.

Hello all, Has anyone noticeably improved the rate at which graphics are loaded in Frame while running on a PC when they upgraded their graphics card? We are considering doing so here, and I suspect it will make a vast improvement. Our PCs are pretty current. I don't want to get lost in the details of hardware configurations etc., but was wondering if anyone had any success in alleviating the problem Thanks, Jim _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
