    Graphics Card & X4

    Is anyone using an NVIDIA GeForce 9500GT graphics card with MasterCAM? We are in the process of upgrading the computers in a computer lab at a Community College and this is the card that computer services is looking at. I need to be certain that this will work before we purchase them. We are running X4.

    I have a Marvel NVidia GeForce 9800 GT (1GB ram) and I love it. Running on a quad core Intel (Q9550) with 8GB Ram on Win XP64 SP2. Great box. X4 runs excellent on it.

    Mastercam users recommend the Quadro line of cards.

    At work we have one seat with an ATI card and another with the Quadro. Both perform the same.

    Neither seat use the gaming card you talk about. It seems the reaction is mixed.

    The only thing I will say is that we have problems with our reseller with the ATI card because they keep saying that can't support that seat because it's not a recommended hardware configuration. You may want to have someone talk to your reseller, because if you do not have what they think you need you might not get much support.
