I run GP2 on a Cyrix P150+ with 32mb EDO, Matrox MGA, ASUS Motherboard
with Triton2 Chipset. About 20 fps in SVGA with 80% of all details on.
No sky, no detail in mirrors.

hmmm...looks like its little slower than p166. I have an identical
system exept I have p166 instead of your Cyrix and I can run most
tracks with full details(exept sky) and get over 20 fps...of course
not monaco and hockenheim and monza because of those trees.

A P150 is slower not only in processor speed but also in bus speed. You
lose about 10% speed on the bus 60 vs 66 so that also is a factor. I run
a Cyrix P166 and my results are about like yours.

Well I have a Cyrix 166+ 32EDO, MGA 2Mb Triton 2 Motherboard and can
run the game at 15fps with all detail including mirrors.   I have seen
at Pentium 200 with similar specification only able to run the game at
exactly the same speed with a P133 running the game at 9 fps so your
166 must be faster than it should be according to these figures

1. GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2 GP2

2. To Cyrix or not to Cyrix?

3. GP2 and my Cyrix P166+

4. Cyrix 120 GP2.

5. Cyrix Ok with GP2 ?

6. GP2 and Cyrix

7. Cyrix 166+ and GP2

8. Cyrix 5x86 utility,overclocking,speeding up Gp2
