Aqua-Soft ForumsIf I get a DX9.0 card, will the performance of mobydock increase? Right now i'm using a GeForce4 Ti4600 and a P4 1.5Ghz system and it definately lags quite a bit sometimes.
Directx 9.0 Compliant Graphics Cards
mobydock lagged a little on my 9800 pro before I switched to y'z >.<
but I know nothing about NVIDIA's line, I can't help you there
Ak! Why would it lag on a 9800? I'm getting an ASUS Radeon 9800XT 256MB pretty soon...that is why I ask.
b/c I tried it with all the default icons
the reason I stopped using it was that I was too lazy to get a theme for it and stuff
Mobydock DX runs great on my ATI Radeon 9600 Pro! (Y) It should run great on a 9800 XT as well.
I've read about people having problems with the ASUS Radeon 9800 XT. You may want to look into that before you make your purchase.
I went from a T! 4200 to a FX 5600 Ultra and I didn't notice any big change in frame rate (P4-1.5). It ran great with both.
You do need to use one of the newer drivers (read read.me). I can't remember the exact driver numbers but it I ran driver below 46.?? there was a serious lag but if I ran the 52.16 or above it took advantage of DX9 and ran much faster. Just go with the newest offical drivers.

It's a bit too late 
I already bought it. Thanks for the info though.
just get the right drivers: omega corner's catalyst reviewed and confirmed by ATI and rated as the best driver hack by ATI
and even omega corner's detonator
these are fully DX9 compilant drivers. they work kicka## on my machine!
