Other NOTES*A note to ME students concerning Unigraphics recommendations for Graphics adapters (clip taken from the NX5 Release Notes, NX3 Release Notes are simular). All the NX certified systems contain graphics adapters that meet all UGS requirements and are fully supported by our hardware partners. The graphics adapters supported are carefully selected by working with our OEM partners as well as our graphics vendor partners. We do not support low-end, consumer or game cards, since these graphics devices are developed for the DirectX market and are not well supported under OpenGL. Because a majority of platform/hardware problems are graphics related, it is critical that all the graphics adapters that NX supports are designed for OpenGL and have the highest level of support from our hardware vendors. We highly recommend that customers only use supported graphics adapters and UGS certified drivers. updated 5/28/2008 |
