        hmmm, your fill rate does seem low for a max, have you run sisoft sandra to see if you're in agp 2x or 1x?

            Barbera, nothing is wrong. The scores are typical for your system.

              Hey DuRaNgO,
              What makes you say the fill rate is low? What kind of numbers are you getting?
              My MAX is getting around 250 fillrate with OCed PIII-450 (card stock settings. The clock was reduced to 150 on MAXs, not 166, so max fillrate (theoretical) should be 300; as far as I understand.
              Of course we don't know anything about the clock rates on MATROX cards, as they are not reported. Right?


              ------------------
              OH NO, my retractable cup holder swallowed a CD

              OPPS I had the dill rate up there, now the MAX is not an herb product, well unless anyone remembers that thread where the cards were being ground up and used for 'exra-legal' uses

                Sorry to throw a spanner in the works but the scores look low to me. In game 2, I get 72 fps usually.

                If you really want to be depressed - run 3dmark2000 and watch your wonderful P3 and Max grind... I scored around 2700 on that, but man does the EBM part look good.

                  Sorry - I meant to say that the 72 is the final figure displayed at the top of the screen and I average usually around 60.
