Thread: Minimum ATI card for tear-free @ 1080p?
i tried install ubuntu on older box (see specs below) try , use file/media server. however, i've run i've found common problem linux. hd video (and sd video) tear pretty badly when played on nvidia 8800gt + 1920x1080 monitor. thus, i'm looking @ low-end ati cards use "tear free" feature in recent catalyst versions has worked me well, @ least radeon 5750. question bare minimum ati card should tear-free playback @ 1080p? 5450's available pretty cheaply (starting @ ~us$35) i'm not sure if have enough memory or gpu power handle 1080p.
system specs:
intel pentium e5500 @ 2.8ghz
msi g31tm-p21
3gb ddr2 667mhz
xfx nvidia 8800gt 256mb
acer e211h monitor
wd sata 500gb "green" drive
seagate sata 500gb 7200 rpm drive
