for a system like mine I mean: -PII350 o/c'd to 392 -256MB of PC-100 RAM -Abit BX mobo -CL TNT w/the latest detonator from nVidia -using Barry's dll's -Maxtor ATA-33 8.2GB HD -CL 128PCI Soundcard The timedemo of Annihilator is only 29-30 range. First, does it seem right for a system like mine?Secondly, would upgrading to TNT2 Ultra would help much or is my processor too slow for it? As well, would I see much improvment from going to one of the GeForce cards or is TNT2 Ultra money better spent and get GeForce if I ever upgrade my processor? Best, RipRock Please change "emoh" to "home" when replying privately.

I'd say that's pretty good for a TNT. But you don't say what resolution you are running at. I have a P2-350 128MB TNT2U I get 40FPS at 1024x768x32 50FPS at 800x600x32 -- Sepulchral[AGQx] reply to sepulchral at agqx dot org ICQ: 534009 "Blades RipRock" <riprock@emoh.com> wrote in message news:k97h4.3510$up4.113683@news1.rdc1.ab.home.com... > for a system like mine I mean: > -PII350 o/c'd to 392 > -256MB of PC-100 RAM > -Abit BX mobo > -CL TNT w/the latest detonator from nVidia > -using Barry's dll's > -Maxtor ATA-33 8.2GB HD > -CL 128PCI Soundcard > > The timedemo of Annihilator is only 29-30 range. > First, does it seem right for a system like mine?Secondly, would upgrading to > TNT2 Ultra would help much or is my processor too slow for it?

it depends on what settings you use. I have PII 400 128 MB Asus p2b Ati rage fury (I know it's a crap) 10 Gb HD (WD) I get 37 fps at demo001 on mid settings 16 bits texture, 800*600, 16 bits colors, high geometrical, high sound (can't remenber the others) I get more than you but my sytem is lower. If you use the same settings, you have probs. If you use really better settings, it sounds normal.

Why don't you use 16 bit colors? Anyway, 40fps at 1024x768x32 is quite good. With a GeForce you can get 50-70fps.
