My video card s--ks.  I would like to have a list of cards that are not only
compatible with windows xp pro sp2 but also with all my 3D art and design
programs.  I think you have to spend at least 300 to get a good card and I have
never done that yet.  What video cards do you (all Carrar users on this site)
have?  I don't even think the Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 is even Open GL, but of
course I could be wrong.  Tina

-- ---- ------ Original message -- ---- ------
How much does your card have memory? memory is divided between
geometry and textures. Sudden slow down may indicate that your
graphics card run out of buffer memory. Hide things you don't need
to see all the time by using visible in 3d -property and see if it
helps.

Other than that, get more memory. Go for 2gb if you can afford.

facets it becomes very slow in Assemble Room (OpenGL, Flat rendering
mode), other rooms or if I view certain grouped objects only are
still acceptably fast. My system is AMD Barton 2600+, 512MB Ram, and
GeForce FX5200. Where's the bottleneck? My CPU, my graphic card or
Carrara itself?
