Poll: Intelgrated/Graphics Options
In developing missions for FS2, I've been having a hard time to optimise for intelgrated graphics, so every FS2 player could run them. However, I came to the question: How many people actually use 'intelgrated' (Intel motherboard/processor Integrated) graphics? And specifically, what type?

Also, if you use Nvidia and ATI graphics, I'm very interested to hear what type you have - Integrated or discrete - As well as what generation (Example: Nvidia Geforce 8800 GT / ATI Radeon HD4850).

This way, I, and probably several other FREDders will know how far we will need to go in optimising missions so a large(r) majority of people can fluidly play such levels.

The poll will be open for 10 days. I hope to receive many comments and votes. Thanks in advance!

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

BFG GeForce 8800GT 512 MB OC2

Venerable card, but much like the rest of my system, is starting to show its age. It still manages most FSO scenarios well enough - I believe my system is more limited by processor and memory bandwidth...
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

Re: Poll: Intelgrated/Graphics Options
Discrete Nvidia GTX 260, will probably sell it out and buy an HD 6950... but that after I get a new job.

Edit: forgot performance..
Quite good, plays smooth with all effects, minor drop on FPS while playing delenda est.

Re: Poll: Intelgrated/Graphics Options
ATI Radeon HD 3600, discrete (and with optimized performance).
Runs BP with advanced VPs with only a minor FPS drop on larger battles (using latest nightlies at least, which have performance improvemetns, not to mention my computer is heavly overclocked).
I'm going to move to a newer stuff once my father finds a new card (and thus will give his current one to me).  :)
