  • What are the best settings for G400 Tweak?

    I just installed the G400 Tweak.

    I have a check for everthing execpt for the following:
    1) anisotorpic filtering
    2) force agp 2x
    3) palettized textures

    Now what is the best settings for greater image quality and better performance?

    Why there is a cross for force AGP 2x? Does this mean that my system is running at AGP 1X speed now? I never changed anything in the first place so why is it running at AGP 1X speed. Does it come like this by default?

      Ok! What setting are the best?

      I am not good at this at all. I have ticks for all except for 3 crosses which I have mentioned above.

      Can you guys suggest the best settings?

        I cant believe the difference with G400 Tweak. Benchmarks went up 15% and difference in games is obvious immediately. Thanks a lot whoever is responsible.

                        Does the tweak work?

                        Which should have a tick?

                        32bit Z buffer
                        Anisotropic filtering
                        Force AGP 2x
                        Palettized Textures

                        I have a tick for the rest but a cross for the above. Now should I leave them uncheck or should I check them?
