Switch from trilinear to bilinear filtering. You should get a nice jump. Dynamic lighting and the "mark on walls" settings are bigtime framerate killers as well. If you disable either or both of them, you should see a nice jump.

A3D is also a killer. Just about everyone is shocked when they enable it and benchmark.

Are you using the second version of TurboGL, which support K-6's and Celerons?

The G400 scales very well with fast processors. Unfortunately, the opposite is true with slower CPU's.
