I have a 486DX-50 and was looking at the Hidden Refresh option in the CMOS.
(AMI BIOS)  Well, it defaults to Disabled, but I recall reading that it should
be enabled for 3 chip 1M, or any 4M.  SO, I Enabled the setting since I have
(4) 4Mx9 9-chip (do 3-chip exist?) and (4) 1Mx9 3-chip.  Now, my 3D Bench
rating went from 37 fps to 40 fps.  Is everything set correctly now?
