In last night's Dega race I had anything between 35 and 55 FPS, and even
the smoke didn't affect me too badly, and I had plenty of opp to notice
:-)

Naa, I'd say that's pretty much spot on for the V5 Eldred, I've
benchmarked my system several times on various stuff, and it seems to be
in the neighborhood of what I ought to be seeing
I've been very happy with mine, all 3 of them :-), but for my main
*** PC I think it's time we parted, ATI Radeon 8500LE is on
(back)order, the 128 MB version
Having said that though, I'm fairly new to NR2002, so I can't say off
the top of my head how much my settings differ from yours, think I stuck
most of it at medium, and minimal details in the mirror

wow.
I have a (slower) P4 with a GF2MX400 and 512 ram.
I run in 1024x 768 with everything on and graphics at 50% or above. 32 cars
20 ahead 10 behind.
I get 55-70 fps by myself, and at the back of the pack at dega im at 37 fps.
i must've got a real good p4
That said, unless you really need to ALT-TAB you'd be better off using
OpenGL, both visually and performance-wise (assuming V-sync is also off)
on an Nvidia card.

| Interesting,
| The patch really crippled my framerates in D3D.
| My league race Monday night prior to the patch I was getting 45-60 fps at
| Dega, after the patch racing Saturday at the same track I was pretty much
| locked on 37 fps, with little fluctuation. And no, vsynch is still off.
