GP2 + K6/200 = WOW!

by Clark Arche » Mon, 23 Jun 1997 04:00:00

After playing GP2 for several hours on a friends
K6/200 machine, I am much more impressed with the
game than ever before.  It was simply amazing.
We still couldn't run with the sky graphics turned
on, but everything else including mirrors runs
flawlessly.  Of course, when you spin the smoke
slows things down temporarily.  A brief overclocking
excursion to 233MHz yielded the sky as well.  
Just thought I'd let you guys (and gals) know.

PS.  I do work for AMD, so take this as you will....

I have just bought a new MB ASUS TX 97 with 32 MB SDRAM
and a Pentium 166 MMX overclocked to 225 MHz (75 x 3). Now I looked
at GP2 as a complete new game. It runs with everything on also sky and

selected 15 fps with processor occupancy always smaller than 100%
(most times between 70% and 90% also with much traffic and in
replays). For some people 15 fps is not enough but for me it's alright
and I love the graphics.
