Graphics card
(OP)
I'm looking at a new laptop and I can choose from the following two graphic cards:
AMD Radeon HD 6990M:
- 2GB GDDR5 memory
- DirectX 11
- AMD HD3D technology
- AMD EyeSpeed technology
- AMD Eyefinity technology
GeForce GTX 580M:
- 2GB GDDR5 memory
- DirectX 11
- DVI Dual Link
- HDCP support
- HDMI 1.4
- nVIDIA PhysX
- GeForce Cuda technology
- 384 Cuda Cores
Will NX take more advantages of any of the technologies(Cuda maybe?)?
Any experience or thoughts of which of the cards that would be best for >=NX7.5?
thanks

RE: Graphics card
I'm not saying they won't work becasue I have used Radeon cards with V18 and gotten better line definition than my Nvidia Quadro card on my work computer.

RE: Graphics card
The difference is in what the hardware is doing. Gaming cards are generating the images in DirectX and off loading the CPU. CAD uses Open GL, so the CPU has to do more work generating the graphics for the display.
