New ATI Graphic Cards and Celestia: Compatibility?

Post #1by ANDREA » 09.10.2008, 13:27

Recently ATI issued a number of new graphic cards, that moved the marked, giving as very appreciated result the notable price reduction of both ATI and Nvidia Cards. :wink:
After a search for information, I think that the new 4870 and 4870x2 by ATI are comparable with the corresponding high-end Nvidia cards, but at lower price.
So my question: after the many Celestia problems given in the past by ATI drivers, any of you tried these new ATI cards (AND drivers) generation with Celestia? 8)
Thank you for your support.
Bye
