ATI 4850 gpu

[dreuzel]

second question.
Running win7 and phoshop cs4, how do I know gpu mode is used ?
Photoshop seems not to detect gpu it asks to consult a site
where no specific information is availaible

Would love to see the effect, or is photoshop cs4 picking up gpu automaticaly ?

Photoshop picks it up automatically. The message PS throws up is simply to direct you to the most recent upgrades. The 4850 is major overkill for Photoshop.

thanks by overkill you mean to performant for what is needed by photoshop.
or it is harder for fotoshop to handle the gpu then not using a gpu

He means that it is a pretty powerful gpu just to edit images. Since Photoshop is 2d and that tends to be a 3d gaming card. Regardless it should work fine.
