I have a Celeron 300A o/c to 450Mhz. It contains plenty of RAM and hard
disk space. I am running Windows 2000 Professional #2195 and have a
Creative Labs RIVA TNT AGP video card. I am using the 3.52 beta drives
with OpenGL extracted from a later drive set. I could install 3.69 if
they are said to be an improvement. Quake is 1.20.

These are some benchmarks I get in Quake 3, using timedemo 1:

1280x1024, full screen, high quality geometric, 32-bit colour, 32-bit
textures, 100% texture quality, bilinear - too slow to bother measuring

1280x1024, full screen, high quality geometric, 32-bit colour, 32-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear - too slow to bother measuring

1280x1024, full screen, high quality geometric, 16-bit colour, 16-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear - 14.1fps

1024x768, full screen, high quality geometric, 32-bit colour, 32-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear - 15.7fps

1024x769, full screen, high quality geometric, 16-bit colour, 16-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear - 24.7fps

800x600, full screen, high quality geometric, 32-bit colour, 32-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear - 24.7fps

800x600, full screen, high quality geometric, 16-bit colour, 16-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear - 37.4fps

800x600, full screen, high quality geometric, 32-bit colour, 32-bit
textures, 100% texture quality, bilinear - 10.1fps


I would be interested in results, using the same conditions above from
other CL TNT users (whether running Win98 or Win2000 Pro). Please say
what drives you are using.

Also I am considering purchasing a CL Geforce 256 DDR. I would like to
know how dramatically the above benchmarks would improve if I upgraded.

I would be particularly interested to know the result foe Quake 3 on a
Geforce 256 DDR at:

1280x1024, full screen, high quality geometric, 32-bit colour, 32-bit
textures, 75% texture quality, bilinear.

Also with 100% texture and trilinear.

Can anyone post some results, info or links to sites with this?

Thanks.
