Well I've installed the card and it is fabulous. In World of Warcraft I turned everything up and the detail on the graphics was incredible. Unforunately at this level there was still jerkiness in some locations. Admittedly not as bad as before but it made my wife very unhappy. I've turned the settings down and she is a bit happier at least. I'm going to show her Half Life 2 soon that should blow her away.
She doesn't seem concerned that we now have our two desktops back. That's one of the things that pleases me most as it will help with video editing where I use the fantastic Adobe Premiere LE. As you will see from the website there is now version 2 available, I bought version 1 a year or so ago. I had previously used the full version so find this pretty easy to use. My only issues with it are that I am no creative genius so I tend to use Microsoft Movie Maker for the titles and there is no upgrade path. I realise it is inexpensive software but I would happily pay say £30 for an upgrade version. I won't however fork out for a complete new version until maybe version 3 or 4.
Making titles in Movie Maker is a doddle, in Premiere it is a bit of a faff though the options are far more powerful and flexible. I also came across Microsoft Photo Story which is a stunningly simple and effective way of turning your photo's into a video, it can even create music for you to your taste. Home videos will never be the same again. You could almost certainly do the same thing in Premiere LE but why bother when you can do it so easily with this program. Something else that is a bit of fun for this sort of thing is Morphing software
