I'm using the Gateway 2000 CrystalScan 1572 FS Monitor. The setup program offered 2 settings for 72hz refresh, one of them produced a shrunken image. When I used the '>' and ']' keys to blow up the image, the refresh rate stepped up to 95hz. >How do you all think the EISA version of the Ultra Pro will compare with these >figures? I suspect it'll be pretty much the same since the stuff that Win- >Bench tests (line drawing, etc) don't care much about the speed of the bus. >Perhaps on memory to screen copies the local bus version will be faster...no? Well, I really don't know, because I have no experience with EISA systems. It should probably come within a few million winmarks. >Oh, and BTW - I'm not sure, but I think you are violating a (somewhat >idiotic) licensing restriction by posting your WinBench results.
