Which graphics card(s) do you use with AmigaOS 4.x (in 2017)?

[Matt_H]

Worthwhile effort, thanks for collecting the data. I've answered the survey, but to elaborate a bit: I use a Radeon 9250 on my AOne-XE because as far as I am aware it's the best option for that machine. If there's a way to use something better I'd love to learn about it!

[Matt_H]

I agree with Rob, the Radeon 9xxx series is the best card for the A1-XE.

Well, case closed, I guess. I think I do have one of the 128-bit cards.

You can run a low profile PCIe card in one of the 33MHz PCI slots for more recent options.

...but this intrigues me! How is that possible? I assume some sort of adapter is required?

[Matt_H]

Thanks. I'd seen PCI to PCIe 1x adapters but didn't know 16x adapters existed. New motherboard is a considerable investment - will have to decide how much I want this or if my current setup is "good enough"

I never got the DMA fix done, so my options are open, at least.

[Matt_H]

Okay, so it might work (that's a big might).

Regarding new motherboards, Trevor said he was hoping to sell the A1222 board below 400 Euros (link). More expensive than a PCIe to PCI adaptor, but it's a nice little board (got one myself).

Oh yeah, I saw the prototype at Amiga 30 in an adorable tiny case. 400 EUR would be juuust out of impulse-buying range, so it'd need to offer something substantially different from the XE (apart from the size) for me to consider.
