[QUOTE="petsa, post: 197996, member: 29962"] I've been thinking about upgrade from the integrated gfx (ATI x1250) to a card with HW acceleration. 2600XT seems to be a good choice but I am worried about the issues with the drivers... With the drivers I have now (7.9) it consumes a lot of CPU resources when sitting idle in the Home screen. I upgraded to the latest (7.10) it got worse. I've seen many reports on the same topic and it seems that old drivers from 7.4 an earlier behaved better. Any comment on this from existng 2600XT owners? /Peter [/QUOTE]
