Question about graphics cards

[Evlesoa]

My friend has a GeForce 5600, and personally I am also am wondering what type of graphics do you need to run the game?

You need a Shader Model 2.0 compatible card. I believe that GeForce 5600 supports this but I am not certain. Just download the game and see if it works =)

hmm, not in list... seems to be very old graphic card. My 4years old card is in list and works even better than my new.

The game works with the Geforce 4600 series and above. Even with this depending on your processor you should be able to run everything at max without any problems.

I don't believe that GeForce 4600 supports Shader Model 2.0

[Persus]

Sure it does cause I was using one in my old machine.

[johan]

Nope. GeForce 4 series not MX only supports DX 8.1 which is Shader Model 1.1
But everything from the 5 series and above supports at least DX 9.0 and thereby Shader Model 2.0+

So i have no idea how you got it working on a GF4 =)

3DAnalyze ftw?

Hm... this is very strange because DS has said from the beginning that I don't have a Shader. I wonder how old my graphics card is. 0.0

No Shader and Dawnspire works? If that is true, why Shader 2.0 is required?
