I'm using an old Matrox Millenium w/ 2MB memory. My monitor is a Princeton Ultra 92 running at 1152x864 w/ 16 bits and 77.6 KHz / 85 Hz.
My question is, if I upgrade to the Matrox G450, will I notice an appreciable improvement in text clarity? What kind of improvements will I see just based on the video card upgrade?
Of course, I'll be upgrading to a newer motherboard, cpu, etc, as soon as the new KT133A motherboards become available.
My goal? The best text I can get. Outside of getting a laptop with a digital screen, is my current monitor giving me anywhere near very good text relative to what's out there...hmmm.
Maybe a laptop is my best bet. I just program, and a powerful cpu isn't my top priority. I just want to read text and program in Java. Dange, I think I just had an epiphany... or was it just a brain fart?
Pardon the ramble, please finish your response. Thanks.
