ATI Mobility Radion HD 3450 256 MB

Does anyone have any experience of using the above Graphics Cards with Archicad 11?

Thank you.

Whoever might reply: if you have one of these cards, please consider adding your data to the graphics card compatibility database here:
http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/compatibility.php

as neither of these cards is listed.

Karl,
How do I post new inforamtion? The ATI Radeon D2600 in the iMAC is not a good card, but not listed.

I am looking for someone who might have switched the card to a GeForce 8800GS, which my genius wants to try.

I also noticed there was a similar thread last year, and the solutions was never posted.

It's like a hanging chad, but now with the WH cleared of all bushes, we'll have to find a new term!

Thanks,

I have an ATI Radeon X600 256MB card (please see my profile for OS info). Since I couldn't find my card from the compatibility database list, I tried downloading the test file. But I saw nothing when I opened it up. Am I missing something here?

The reason I'm searching around is I'm trying to find out if the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 will work with ArchiCAD 9. Does anyone have any idea? Or am I just way off the topic? =P

Thanks!
