nforce and radeon

April 27th, 2005, 08:13 PM

i'm doing a bit of research for my new computer, and i have a small problem.

the only mother boreds that seem to have everything i want are all nforce motherboreds, which as i understand it, are made by nvidia or something like that?

well, i want an ATI radeon in my next computer. quite simply, does anybody know if radeons will work with nforce motherboards?

You'll have no problem with a raedon gfx card in a motherboard with a nforce chipset.

My new rig has that exact setup. A NF4U with a x800XL. No problems in 32bit and 64. There have been some instances of increases performance when running a Geforce on a nForce but the Radeon runs just as fast on any other chipset. ATI's SLI might not work on the nForce though.

i don't even know what the SLI is, i plan on getting the radeon X800 pro.

well thats good to know that nforce dosn't mess up with ati cards. thanks.
