Hello All,
I'm looking for the above to help me get through the ever growing
thesis I'm writing. Redraw rates and photos in the document are S .
L . O . W . and I'm looking to speed things up. Running a 660av (so a
7' card guys) on OS 7.6.1. I suppose the most important thing is
availability. The Radius thunder II gx may be the bees knees but if
they're virtually impossible to get second hand, it's a bit of a loss!
Isnt there a plugin for photoshop 2 or 3 that uses the built in DSP's of the 660AV? I dont think any nubus cards are faster then the built in video of the 660/840av quadra's because of the slow nubus bus compared to the faster built in video bus. The thunder GX is fast because of the DSP's onboard, if you cant get the 660av onboard dsp's running try finding a cheap radius photobooster card on ebay (its just a DSP addon card).
I don't know about a photoshop plugin but the 660av takes 1mb of the 8mb onboard for vram.
Probably better of with some kind of video card. It explains the lack of speed for mine.
