Graphic card query for sam460
« on: December 07, 2011, 05:17:29 PM »
Hi all, I have a Sam460 (lite from amigakit) with a radeon hd4650 installed.
Rather than wait who knows how long for composting and 3d support for the card I am thinking of getting a 9250 card.

Will it just be as simple as replacing one with the other as I believe the hd4650 is in a pci express port?

Ok, thanks.

 I have just read that a download called wazp3d will let me run 3d through hardware rendering. Anyone used this?

Will any 9250 card work or do i need a specific one e.g. will this one do the job?

well... um, no. Just worried that an original driver would also be needed. Yes, I am a noob when it comes to techincal stuff....
