G400 Q3 performance

[sergiu84]

Bit new here.. Forgot I even had an account! Anyway, business:
Gigabyte 7DXR (AMD 761 / VIA 686B methinks)
Duron 700@875
128DDR
Fujitsu 8GB
G400 (SH, 16MB)
and others...
In Q3, demo001 (in "high quality"), only (?) gives me 47 fps (this is with the card o/c to 190MHz (through PowerStrip, will try Matrox tool very soon - ie tomorrow). Should I be getting any more? It's just that I do actually like the card, and OK, it's a bit old, but I don't really want anything else than a Matrox now... ATi, maybe - dodgy drivers though (apparently).

Thank you!

sounds about right to me.

in my experience, the best setting was 800*600*16, with everything max/on except trilinear, with that setting i get around 60 fps on a g400max with 800mhz P3

Phew.. thank-you... well, actually I'm not sure whether "thank-you" is adequate... I'll have to change the G400 soon then, and I really want to wait for the new chip, it sounds pretty damn good.

Thank you (well..)
