If you want to manipulate molecules with a hundred thousand atoms or large density maps (512 ** 3 or larger) the rendering will be smoother with any consumer video game playing graphics card from nvidia or amd. Usually such large systems are not used in tutorials that would be presented in teaching lab. The most common trouble with graphics and Chimera is caused by old graphics drivers (> 3 years old). Update to date graphics drivers for laptops are often not available.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>Tom</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Feb 24, 2016, at 7:39 AM, Fabian Technion <wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=us-ascii" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">Hi,<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I would like to know your reccomendation for a minimal graphic card standard that will work nicely with chimera.
