- 24"imac 640gb hard drive nvidea gt130 graphics card.
Hello Everybody
This is my first post,and just a general question really,so here goes.Having been a pc user for the last 12 years i have become dissollussioned with the pc experience ie virus's and malicious mail etc etc and am now going over to the white side.I am going to order the 24" imac with the 640 gb hard drive,but am unsure as to which graphics card to go for,i was going to upgrade to the NVIDIA GeForce GT 130 512MB,but am now thinking of changing to the ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB.I like to take photographs and now with my new camera shall be using the raw formatt a lot, and maybe in the near future going into video editing.So my question is, Is it worth the extra 40 quid between these two cards,and go with the Radeon ,or go for the Nvidea. Any help would do nicely,and very much appreciated.
Very interesting forum and knowledgable people by the way.
