        Man, my jaw nearly broke when it hit the ground.

        The hi-res shot of the G400 is really something to behold. The detail on the rail-gun is just incredible.

              Ok, I've added a V3-3000 screenshot. I have the shot I needed thanks to Joel, for sending 0004 to me.

              Thanks,

                wow, my screenies are hot property trust me when I say that shot doesn't do it justice. I'll send ALBPM a non-gamma ****ed up version. The problem is my monitor is tweaked for graphic design, not gaming, thus the gamma and colour temps always look funky in screenshots. I'll be getting a new monitor soon (a ViewSonic PT755) so hopefully my next screenies will be more indicative of what it really looks like.

                Gawd, listen to me, I'm sticking up for 3dfx again!

                the card is crap, the card is crap, the card is crap... c'mon Agent, BELIEVE! hehe

                Changing the subject, did you guys happen to read 3dfx's press release? V3 is outselling all other 2.5 generation cards by 450% in retail outlets, what I wanna know is, WHY? it's not that much cheaper... I guess 3dfx still has a name that the less dedicated users easily recognise as 'performance'.

                    Just added a Permedia 3 screen shot from a reveiw which you can find here:
                    systemlogic.net/Articles/Screenshots/q3per3/

                    Hopefully they will send me a shot to match the others.

                      NOYB2, I can't even see the difference between the Hercules and the g400's Railgun detail.

                        Thanks to Dave over at SystemLogic I now have the screen shot needed. Man, those guys are fast over there. They are also the ONLY site to post any info on Permedia 3.

                          The railgun detail is very nice on the Herc as well.

                          However, take a look at the ramp leading to the railgun on the TNT2. Blurry as heck.

                          Tsk, tsk so close to be perfect.

                            What you observed are the number of rendering or Mip Map levels. The G200 for instance has only 5 levels and like the TNT2, the path looses detail after a short distance. The G400 supports 11 levels and will show more detail at a greater distance than the G200 or TNT2 cards.
                            The ATI card looks great but look at the clouds just below the 'ATI' where I labeled the shot. Do you see the texture, a kind of cross-hatch(xxxx). Then look around the rest of the image and you will notice how that texture is everywhere. Almost like a 16bit texture instead of 32bit.

                              I took a good look at the shots and I can also see the blurry ramp of the TNT2 and G200 that NOYB2 was referring to; but I also notice what seems to be a lower level of color in the G400 shots compared to both the TNT2 and the G200. The TNT2 just looks more lush. Taking this into consideration, I think the TNT2 comes out on top in this one...
