we have Archicad 10. What 512mb graphic cards are the better ones that work well with Archicad 10?
I have a Dell Optiplex GX270T (whatever that means) P4, 800 FSB, 512k cache,
2.0 gigs of ram
128MB Nvidia GeForce FX5200 graphics card.

I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card to a 512mb card. I was told I can use it in an AGP port which my PC comes with.

What suggestions do you experts who have had graphic cards in the past say? I'm doing a lot of 3d design with the PC and was wondering.

Don't laugh - a good gaming card will do best. On the other hand, if it can handle games, it can handle anything ...

The important thing to watch is OpenGL support.

Check the Graphics card compatibility database, if you have not done it already:
