Building a good system. In general, you can be sure that any graphics card available today at a cost of slightly more than 40 euros can run the MXWendler vj-software. But do not expect wonders from this kind of hardware. (although we had impressive throughputs with ATI 9700 mobile devices).

A critical part is the disk. Video moves a lot of data. Full and fragmented notebook disks have horribly low performance. Get a raid, or at least defragment your drive and keep it at maximum 60% full.

Ram: it should be obvious that realtime vj-software with less than 512MB ram is almost impossible. Also, if you use resolutions above 320x240, get a GB of ram.

	Video	Disk	Ram
Minimal	NVidia: 5200, 6200 / ATI 9200	IDE 5200 Rpm	512 MB
Medium	NVidia: 6600,6800 / ATI X200,X600,X800	SATA 7200	1 GB
High	NVidia: 7800,7900,7950 / ATI X1600,X1800,X1900	SATA Raid 10.000 RPM(eg. WD Raptor)	2 GB

Feel free to ask by email if you have further questions. It is absolutely ok to ask if your systems are well configured to run our video software products.
