    its always a 'krimi'
    i did ad firewire card with texas chip....all running now but my geforce gtx500 or whatever is defect now....i was never able to clean it cause i didnt wanted to unplug it...mistake i guess..how ever now my machine is even more modded on performance maybe cause i can run just on onboard chipset through hdmi port of defect geforce ....but audio damage need modern gpu...i dunno if melda runs just on chipset....how ever maybe i run just with on board chipset...limititation wont hurt me but anyway what cards you think is cheap and enough powered to run modern vst plugz which want fancy gui
    1024 is enough or ?

    I have upgraded my setup,and with my new PC I use the Intel UHD Graphics 630 from my processor and all is working fine!
    But lately I had a problem with audio Damage plugins;I updated my drivers and all is good now.
    All my plugins work.

    Not sure if you can manage modern GUI plug-ins unless you have the newest Nvidia 2080.

    Seriously I am still using the crappy Intel chipset from my motherboard and all is well.

    funny thing my x86 lenovo g550 beast notebook from 2008 fully expanded is runnin all new plugz from chipset...the acer predator from 2012 not...
    i thought i killed my i7 desktop yesterday but its the gpu...damn what horror...
    then i was 1:30 hours infront of edirol tweaking and thinking...i thought its defect until i remember i bought this boss eq...some hardware need to be turned on unlike vst eq ..he he..
    btw i7 2800 seems enough for my needs....
    the latency of firewire edirol is superb

    acer predator has many types , so to really help you we need the proper classification or, at least information to your Mainboard

    you can also use tools like https://www.chip.de/downloads/System-Spec_50303824.html to check this out.

    -can be bios configurations like aperture size ( the amount of ram dedicated to your GPU onboard chip)
    -can be drivers

    but it´s all "finger in die Luft halten" as long as we have more details

    but generally speaking .. if your mainboard has onboard graphics your should be able to configure it in a way all kind of plugs should work.

    the only downside may be the fact that all RAM that is taken away to be used for for graphics onboard chip is.. well away :)

    integrated gpu since roughly Intel HD 4000 (Ivy Bridge cpu series from 2012) should be fine,
    let's not forget it's the screen resolution and refresh rate (basically frame rate) matters more - especially when using multi-monitor setups where EACH monitor needs certain amount of video memory (let's say one screen needs 500MB, then 3 monitors need 1500MB vram)

    All the pros use VSTS with ray tracing capabilities. IF you want to sound like a pro you're gonna need a GTX 2080TI at the very low price of $1200+

    schreib mir einfach bei AF ne pm mit Adresse oder Postpach und ich schick Dir ne 710GT 2GB für lau..die reicht dicke. dann ist das hin und her endlich vorbei ;) bin ja nicht so aktiv hier normalerweise, daher lieber dort dann muss ich hier nicht immer reinschauen und checken ob ich Dir was antworten muss :)


    p.s. bezüglich des s3200 .. nicht zu technisch nerdig werden bei der Verbindung zum PC .. "keep it real" dafür hastes doch gekauft fuchs Dich rein und track einfach das Audiosignal old school in die DAW ;) hab für so Gefuddel selbst vielviel Zeit verschwendet spreche also nicht als Klugscheisser sondern als geschundenes Kind.. einfach Mukke machen , Beschänkungen können was Tolles sein ;)

    peace

    @wasgedn For VSTs, any card should work, unless it's more than 10 years old and has 128 MB of RAM or less. Hell, even that one should work with the majority of plugins. :rofl: That Nvidia GT 710 with 1GB of RAM should work very well, and it's passively cooled for silence. It also won't saturate the PCIe slot too much, since it's not a very powerful card. This is actually a plus for us computer musicians, because it leaves PCIe more free for audio cards and stuff we do need. The only downside is you won't be able to play any modern games.

    The most important thing to remember is to install a good VGA driver. You seem to have no VGA driver installed on that laptop! [says Standard VGA adapter] That's what makes it work without any 2D and 3D acceleration. Sometimes it's better to use an older version of VGA driver. Particularly if it's an older VGA card. My rule is: the older - the better, and if it works with all the plugins properly, it is good. :rofl:

    Newer VGA drivers deal generally only with gaming problems these days, anyway. :wink:

    Cheers!
