If you want to perform hard-core analysis with VMD, I recommend you to use the nVidia Quadro FX 4000. I've been working with this card on a dual Opteron machine (2.4 GHz), 4 GB RAM and running under RedHat Enterprise 3.0. VMD has been extremely fast and very efficient... But as usual, it depends on your budget :)

Hello,
We are planning to buy new computers and want to make sure that VMD with latest features would run properly. The card of choice is:

256MB PCI Express(tm) x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X600 SE HyperMemory

Does anybody have any experience with this graphics card?

Thank you.

Jindal
