Attention: Graphics Professionals

[RockDog]

Hi,

My brother has asked me to build him a computer(AMD). He will be using it for professional 3D graphics design. He will be using applications like Rhinoceros and 3D Studio Max.

I would like to know what graphics card to get him. $200 is the approximate limit.

Thank you.

Matrox G450 (if he'll be using 2 monitors) or a Geforce2.

I'd honestly have to say the Geforce2 ultra would be best for preformance, and like superwormy said, G450 for using dual monitors. But the T&L Ability of the Geforce2 ultra would have a dramatic impact on preformance. If he's using dual monitors.. you can drop in a Geforce2 Ultra and another PCI Video card for the second monitor.. but I really don't know how that would affect the preformance.. Geforce2 ultra looks like the best card for the price range.. hope that helps.

probably want to grab a gts2 flavored card as the primary, and consider a pci card for the second head.
