Matrox G400 Dual / 32MB Benchmark Results ?

[CyBorg229]

I was wondering what your benchmark results are ? My car seems to be very slow on my P2-450 while playing Grand Theif Auto, I don't usualy play that much games but it seemed that my I740 was a bit faster. I'm gonna test it on Phantom Menance later today but any ideas ? I dl the new drivers and did not try the O/C utility yet.

What benchmarks are you after? What are yours so we can see if you really are slow.

Maybe you just need some super plus petrol in your car?

I did a 3DMark, I gotta check the result again but a P2-450/ 128MB RAM w/ the 2.5% turn on @ 464Mhz, I believe I got around 3200. It could be that my window 98se is really old and I haven't had the chance to rebuilt it with a clean built.

I couldn't run anything in NT, this is a dual p2-450.

I haven't try the dual celeron yet but the dual celeron is also at 464.

Grand Theif Auto just runs and pauses even at 640x480x16.. I also threw on the heatsink and 50mm fan to cool it, havn't O/C it yet either.

Cyborg229,
If you look my signature you will see that we have pretty much the same hardware(exept a +50Mhz O/C in the PII).My G400 MAX gives me 4210 3dmarks MAX.

YOU are not happy for the 6ns SGRAM????????
Do you know that the UltraTNT2 uses 7ns SDRAM (that's SDRAM not SGRAM=faster than the SDRAM)(ok my system has 5ns SGRAM but i have a G400 MAX)

[Maggi]

MY 6ns SGRAM runs happily at above 200MHz ... so what ?

It's a Vanilla at MAX speed
