LOL You just don't get it do you? If I get 42 fps at 1600x1200 and 50 at 640x480 then the benchmark is null and void because at 640x480 the ceiling is capped! The point of the other benchmarks is to show that these types of games have no cap at all. UT on the other hand has very little differene in benchmarks making this a completely useless comparrison. It's flawed..... <DeadDred@nospam mail.com> wrote in message news:3886cc7d.70423068@perm.read.netcom.net.uk... > On Fri, 14 Jan 2000 07:18:57 -0500, "SilverBack" <downing7@gte.net> > wrote: > > <erroneus links snipped> > > Why have you quoted 3dmark and Q3 scores in a discussion about UT? > > > >The answer here is fillrate. > >In UT the difference is 19% from 640x480 to 1600x1200? > >Sorry not possible.
