Success with a new system!

I've always wanted to build my own system.  I just finished it.

I jumped from a 350 Mhz AMD to a 1.3 gig AMD!

And a GeForce II 400 MX card.

What a difference!

Now...a question.  I've been seeing posts on here concerning D3D and OpenGL
settings.  But I neglected to save any of them.  Stuff like V-sync off or
on.  And other settings that I just don't know what to adjust to away from
the defaults.

Any help?

Thanks...

Jim

You definitely want v-synch off, but you might try FSAA on & off & note the
diff (quality & perf).  Ditto ansiotropic filter.  And mess with an nVidia
tweak util like nVmax.  CAREfully (you won't gain much w. o'clocking, but
you could lose the card; stick to the gfx tweaks).
