Have anyone of you timedemo-ed descent3 with the g400max ??
Please make this test : 1600*1200*32bit , secret2 demo , command line parameters in misc. folder (enter the setup folder at startup) -fastdemo -z32bit -bumped
(you need the newest patch for descent3 for bump mapping support ..btw . IT LOOKS SO COOL !)
Turn everything on if you see any quality options in the menus and then hit the view demo button , choose secret2 demo (it is the only one there ) .
Now comes the important thing : when the demo starts hit F2 key quickly to ensure it is running at 32 bit , because it always defaults to 16 bit !
Leave the menus and let the timedemo finish .
I have good news for you , the 100Hz/60Hz problem seems to be a problem of 3dmark99max and NOT of the g400 drivers THOUGH even in descent3 there is a minimal slowdown the higher the refreshrate gets but not that high as in 3dmark !
Opengl seems nearly unaffected by 100Hz/60hz problems .
p.s.: since you all like to bash tom ... i like his tests very much and i think that he was NEVER wrong .
(his first q3 numbers were all wrong due to the boken timedemo feature in pre 1.06 versions of q3test BUT the ratios were right !)
And the tnt2ultra is STILL the fasted in q3 !
(and not just a few fps but clearly !)
