Amithlon Compatible Graphics Cards


The graphics drivers in kernel 3.10 can enable hardware acceleration with the following familes of graphics card:

* NVidia TNT2

* NVidia GeForce SDR / DDR

* NVidia GeForce 2 / 2MX

* NVidia GeForce 4000 / 4MX

* NVidia GeForce 3 / 3 Ti

* Nvidia GeForce 4 Ti

* Nvidia GeForce FX / FX Go / PCX

* ATI Radeon 7xxx

* ATI Radeon 8xxx

* ATI Radeon 9xxx

* Matrox Millennium / G100 / G200 / G450 / G550

All other cards will run in VESA VGA mode. If you are purchasing a card to use with Amithlon I strongly recommend picking a GeForce 4 Ti or GeForce FX card as these offer maximum performance and working DVI support.
