I want to be able to use 1024x768 (or whatever the correct numbers close to that are) on a non-interlaced monitor (a Seiko 1450, I think). One vendor has told me I need 1M on the video card to support non-interlaced SVGA, another has said that a much cheaper (ATI Wonder) card with only 512K will do. Which vendor is correct, or am I totally confused, or both?
