Resolution/refresh rates...VS...Software......appian/colorgraphics Dirk, thanks for your evaluation. I'm not too much of a techie so your opinion is considered highly. For daytrading purposes, I'm not sure how important refresh rates are for running BMI real time charts, a chat room, the internet, and some level 2 screens. My monitors will be different sizes (15,17,21) and of differnent makes (NEC and Viewsonic). This is my only use for the graphics card. How big of difference would I see in the above programs using Colorgraphic's faster refresh and higher resolution versus Appian's? From your evaluation I take it that Appian's software is superior, but Colorgraphics refresh rates/resolution are better. For trading purposes would you give refresh rates a higher priority than software? (I read at Tom's Hardware site that driver software can really affect the performance of NT programs.) Pae, thanks for your research as well. Thanks, S.W.
