I get only these informations from that card: VGA GIGABYTE NVIDIA GEFORCE GT730, GV-N730D5-2GI, 2GB DDR5, 902/5000MHz, HDMI, DVI-D, D-sub Is this a Fermi or a Kepler card? > For the best open-source support, I recommend sticking with an > on-board Intel GPU, or if that's insufficient (esp recent stuff has > been getting pretty speedy), getting something from AMD. I don't have on-board Intel GPU on this motherboard. So there is an AMD card too: VGA ASUS AMD Radeon R7 240, R7240-2GD3-L, 2GB DDR3, 128bit, 730/1800MHz, HDMI, DVI-D, D-sub What would be the best choice here: GEFORCE GT 730 or AMD Radeon R7 240 ? -- Best, Pali _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
