[SuSE Linux] [off topic] just got my voodoo2
If any of you are quakers you may find this interesting. I was an early adopter of 3dfx voodoo, I bought my Diamond Monster 3d almost 2 years ago. In anticipation of my new p2-400 that I'm getting I just purchased a 12Mb Diamond Monster 3d 2 voodoo2 card. I wasn't expecting to see much improvement til I got my p2. BOY WAS I SHOCKED when I fired up glquake! I have always gotten 30.1 fps in timedemo2 (I could get up to 43 fps but at the expense of image quality so it wasn't worth it). I just ran timedemo demo2 with my new voodoo2 card and got 58.2 fps!!! With excellent image quality. I rebenched and got the same result. I could tell that it was going to benchmark better than the voodoo because it was going through the benchmark much faster and there was an eerie clarity to everything. And this on a p200mmx @ 640x480. I can't wait til I get my p2 so I can get that framerate at 800x600. Man, I can't wait to try Unreal at a playable framerate now. /me goes out deathmatching :) -- .###. /#######\## -==============================================- ;##### ;# Mike's WindowMaker ;##### ;# <A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org/windowmaker.html"><A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org/windowmaker.html</A">http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org/windowmaker.html</A</A>> \# /## -==============================================- ###'---'#### - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
