Great, now let's see some pong or pac-man benches .

i AM suprised however that it can do full 2x2 ansitropy at 1024x768 and still achieve 100+ fps.
2x2 ansitropy is basically rendering a screen 4 times the size then scaling down.
so all the edges are VERY crisp and smooth. YUM

now ive got a hankerin to play all the mission packs the way they should ahve been played! FAST.
also wanna see if i can get dukenukem3d to work as well

probably...
calls it a different thing in opengl than in direct3d.

I'm impressed that you got 426fps. What processor are you using? Based on Tom's benchmarks, he only hit 129fps with a 1.33GHz Athlon and 134 with a 1.7GHz P4. You mention 2x2 anistropy...hmmm...sounds more like Anti-aliasing to me =) anistropy comes in flavors like 8-tap and 16-tap or more, I do believe.

well there is a trick.
im using rivatuner and i set vsync to off (der)
maximum frame read ahead to 9 (thats the max i think)
that only gives me about 150fps, the trick is to enable TNT legacy mode ((or something like that). see im at work and workin from memory here.

ansitropy... antialiasing... why cant they give em easy to remember names?
anyhow, when i enable the TNT legacy mode (disabeling modern accel) i get a big enough boost that i can quite easily run Q2 using 1x2 or ever 2x2 antialiasing... and quake 2 was a great single player adventure.
shame there wasnt a d3d version.
oh yeah... now i remember. it was antialiasing. i found anistropy took 2-3 fps off.
