    Graphics card requirement for Google Earth

    From http://earth.google.com/faq.html#5

    The 3D graphics capabilities of your machine have a lot to do with how well Google Earth performs. Google Earth will work on most graphics cards from the following manufacturers:

    • NVIDIA
    • ATI*
    • 3D Labs
    • Intel**
    • Matrox
    • S3

    * The following ATI cards are not supported: ATI Rage Mobility, ATI Xpert, ATI 3D Rage.

    ** Intel 3D graphics machines can use the default OpenGL version, but work better in DirectX (choose Start > Programs > Google Earth > Start Google Earth in DirectX).

    Matrox card users must use the OpenGL version. S3 cards must use the DirectX version.
