Why don't you try to overclock that 333? I'm doing 500 on both. Plus,
put the screws to that TNT2 also... Take it up a few notches.

Worekd it out: your boot screen is using 1000K = 1 meg, rather than
1024:
(256 x 1024) + (64 x 1024) = 327,680.

Why don't you over that sucker then? I have a blue core 750 T-Bird
overclocked to 109x10= 1090 on a Abit KT7 Raid. I'm also running raid
mode 0. Burst rate is 85, seek 9.5 The AMD T-Bird's
love to be overclocked! I connected the L1 bridges on my
bird with rear window fogger repair kit paint [ very conductive] Or
you can use a pencil but sometimes it wears off after a while.
You can buy the stuff at Autozone.

May I ask, when is this frame rate taken? (practice, race, alone, etc)
My dream is to one day (before the end of the year :) ) be able to MAX
the graphics at a res of at least 1024 X 768, start a race at the back of
a 19 car pack, at Monaco (graphic hog of GPL(? or Spa?)) and never ever
see the FR drop off of 36.
Hopefully a 2GHZ machine will do this.
