I am really interested in what the practical effect of Cyrix's f.p.u
is on the performance of games. I know Quake sucks with the Cyrix, but
I am not interested in Quake. I am interested in the following games:

All of Papyrus' games.
GPII
EF2000 and the upcoming series of new flight sims.
Duke3D
Mechwarrior series - Including any updates.

Specific experiences, i.e. frame rates, resolution and detail level
are most welcome. Plus, any info on whether producers will be
compiling code to bypass this specific fault for future games would be
appreciated.

Oh, I would also like to know if the upcoming 3d accelerators will do
anything to mitigiate the weak f.p.u performance.

Many thanks,

Mike
