- Column for screenshots, link as numbers, please upload on http://www.imgur.com to avoid broken links.
- Column for Alpha Version (currently all set to 79, please update when you can)

I've also added some simple posting guidelines to Radu's topic post and moved the link up higher for easy access.
Thanks for the additional guidelines, but number 2 is irrelevant.

I only included it because the original wiki entry had a column for both desktop and laptop with a star to show which. I just combined it into one column to save space, but figured since it was in the wiki it would be useful for people to post it when they post here too =)

Yes but in the thread it's easy to figure out if it's a desktop card or a laptop version (black=desktop and red=mobile) but anyway good job.

And the wiki needs to be updated :D (i can't - i suck at wikis)

I'll try to update the wiki fairly soon. The additional data could be very useful, nice work!

Xfx ati radeon hd 4650 works with all alphas so far
The only graphical issue that I've encounter was that very rarely the sky was a solid blue color, and the sun is visible, but when I move the sun everything goes back to normal.

ATI Radeon 4200 (embedded), desktop, windows 7 64bit: runs, but loads a bit slow and framerate 20-30 with occasional drops (primarily when loading/manipulating objects).

I think it would be good if people also started posting their fps along with the card. It seems to say a lot more than just if it is working or not.

Along those lines, I'm going to be getting a new graphics card eventually. Could someone with the gts 250 tell me what kind of frame rate you were getting?

Comparing FPS can be good, but not in the first post of this thread. That should only have information that stays relevant, but the FPS fluctuates.

I have GTS 250. I had very low FPS when I last tried an alpha, perhaps a month or so ago. 4-5 FPS, I think. A year ago, my FPS was several times higher, but it slowed down as Alphas got older. The recent optimizations (imposters, changes to animation math) have probably increased this a lot. This is all from a single computer that hasn't changed at all.
