Average GPL Framerates?

Just wondering... What are people getting for framerates in GPL with systems similar to either of the following? 64 MB SDRAM 6.4 GB HD Diamond Stealth II S220 Rendition 4MB 16-bit SoundBlaster Clone (Doubles as gameport) Abit BH6 motherboard 34+ FPS all the time, 640X480, most options on 64 MB SDRAM 8.0 GB HD Matrox Millenium G200 8MB 3dFX Voodoo2 1000 12MB SB AWE64 value Asus P2B motherboard 34+ FPS most of the time, except on grid / near pits, 25+ FPS, 640X480, most options on -- Kirk Lane ICQ: 28171652 BRT #187 "I read dead Russian authors volumes at a time I write everything down except what's on my mind 'Cause my greatest fear is the sucking sound And then I know I'll never get back out" -'Narcolepsy', Third Eye Blind

Your numbers look perfectly average from what Iv'e seen in the last year of GPL. testing/building switching from an awe 64 to the live value added several fps. There was also a marked improvement from a 4meg to 8meg thriller. JM

I have got a Celery 300A o/c'ed to 450, with a Thriller 8Mb (rendition), and it pumps out rock steady 36 fps with ALL graphics on and 800x600. Even during starts and Nouveau Monde (you know, the hairpin at the bottom of Rouen). And I have a digital joystick port (PDPI) and a PCI soundcard (cheapo SB PCI64). Same MB as you do, BH6. The Thriller is THE graphcis card for GPL, unfortunately it isn't particularly fast with anything else. But I use my computer 95% of the time for GPL, so I am pretty happy with my combo... ---Asgeir---

I got similar system but Hercules 3D 8Mb and playing 800x600 with all on (but antialiasing) I get 36fps costanly in solo mode and 30-31fps at the back of the grid and "might" drop to 24fps for 1 sec in the 1st corner. After that solid 36fps. Regards, David Mocnay

I was actually kinda hoping for framerates for the one with the V2 :) But I'm also glad that my $30 Stealth II is still somewhat up to pace :) -- Kirk Lane ICQ: 28171652 BRT #187 "I read dead Russian authors volumes at a time I write everything down except what's on my mind 'Cause my greatest fear is the sucking sound And then I know I'll never get back out" -'Narcolepsy', Third Eye Blind > >Just wondering... > >What are people getting for framerates in GPL with systems similar to either > >of the following? > >64 MB SDRAM > >6.4 GB HD > >Diamond Stealth II S220 Rendition 4MB > >16-bit SoundBlaster Clone (Doubles as gameport) > >Abit BH6 motherboard > >34+ FPS all the time, 640X480, most options on > I got similar system but Hercules 3D 8Mb and playing 800x600 with all on (but > antialiasing) I get 36fps costanly in solo mode and 30-31fps at the back of > the grid and "might" drop to 24fps for 1 sec in the 1st corner.
