I get nearly 70fps 1024 X 768 X 32, quality at highest settings. I can get
almost 100fps if I cut quality like you are Simon. Turn EVERYTHING up and
see what your 450 gives ya, just over 40fps is my guess!

CPU/FPU makes a BIG difference at high res and high texture quality (fills).
I'm running 850/150 from a P3 with more memory bandwidth than a 1Gh Athlon.
Looks fucken awesome!
