Re: More RAM or upgrade graph. card?

thebard,

Don't know what resolution you are running the aquarium at, but 60fps is fine. A P3 800Mhz CPU is more than enough to handle the aquarium, along with the amount of RAM you have installed.

Jim's aquarium is rendered in 3D and most of the load is on your video card right now, if you want to run at higher resolutions, and get faster fps, a new video card would be your best investment. There are many out there to chose from and the prices are always dropping. I would wait until the new Geforce3 card is released and at that point the older cards will take another drop in price.
