    Please Help: Can't upgrade PSU to run Quadro FX3700... :(

    Thanks folk, that's perfect! We read elsewhere that Adobe had released an update for CS4 which sorted a lot of lag issues. That solved the bulk of problems & the 1400 is now working quite well. Going to return the 3700 as it'll never work in this pc, andget a FX1700 instead. sdlvx: OpenGL was...

    The best low-profile PCIe x16 video card?

    Hey everyone [my first post here]... Having scanned thru this big ol thread, I don't feel at all confident about choosing a low profile Asus 1Gb 9400GT (£50 on ebay) to go in my work's HP Compaq desktop :( I can't find what model the PC is, but she's running: Windows XP SP2, 2Gb DDR, Intel...
