Verite + P90 in N2 / ICR2?

2 posts by 2 people · 01 Mar 1997 - 07 Mar 1997

My second machine has a Pentium 90 in an old Neptune-chipset Intel Plato board with an old PCI ET4000/w32p card. I'm considering putting a Verite-chipset card (probably the Intergraph, as it's the cheapest and bundles ICR2) in that computer, but I don't know if it'll perform well enough given the relatively slow processor and old motherboard. (I assume that the motherboard handles DMA badly and that I'd end up running the "safe" versions of games rather than the "fast" versions.) Anyone running N2 / ICR2 Verite-accelerated on similar hardware? How's performance? Thanks. --

I have an Intense 3D 100 running on a Gateway P90 (same chipset and mobo). I can run Indy Car Racing II and Nascar II using DMA with no problems (the frame rate in ICR2 is at constant 25 thru 30 fps). Ulysese Systems Software Spc Brooklyn Union
