macoman Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) I was wondering if anyone still play second life and what recommended graphics card do you think will run smooth the graphics demand of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xendrome Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Second Life Recommended Graphics Card: ATI: 4850, 4870 OR NVIDIA: 9800 So anything made today should run it just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reading in their forums that even the one posted as recommended graphics card does not always run the best... I have a MacPro as my main machine and it is hard to find a great card at a good price. My machine have 16GB ecc ram and Nvidia gtx120 512mb ram and run the game very poorly.

GT 130 is like the slowest card a MacPro can take.. GT 630 is twice as fast. http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GT-630-vs-GeForce-GT-120 or GTX 750 is about 3.5 to 4.0 times faster - http://gpuboss.com/gpus/GeForce-GTX-750-Ti-vs-GeForce-GT-120 Not sure if you need to make sure you have a Mac firmware card though, I don't really do Macs. macoman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the links, these cards are for PC but I found out in eBay while I was searching for a card a good deal in a MAC AMD Radeon 7870 which is five times the power of a GT120.

Check here for the cards I listed - http://www.macvidcards.com/store/c2/Nvidia_GPUs.html Not sure how reputable the dealer is, also check this for Compatibility - http://www.macvidcards.com/i-want-the-best-graphics-card-for-my-mac-pro-where-do-i-start.html macoman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightScreams Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I'm surprised they haven't rebooted that for VR using UE4 engine or something. That might make it more appealing. macoman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
