Forum Overview :: American McGee's Honda Civic :: video cards

[quote name="Commander Tansin A. Darcos"]As an example of how far things have gone, my current computer does nice video, it has the original card an Nvidia GEforce 6150 SE Nforce 430 which will drive my 19" monitor at 1280 x 1024 and will handle doing at landscape or portrait. It's not bad at all. It has no coprocessors in it. You can buy a $30 NVIDIA GeForce 210 graphics card right now, that has 30 CUDA graphics coprocessors. For $60 you can buy a NVIDIA GeForce GT 610 that has 48 CUDA graphics coprocessors. They'll drive graphics at resolutions of 2048x1536. These video cards, for very little money, have so much processing power people are using them as auxilliary math processors and even for mining Bitcoins. [/quote]
