GPL with Stealth 220? What card for GPL

by Otto Mathek » Fri, 05 Feb 1999 04:00:00


of money and in deep s**t with significant other.  Next purchase will be
either a video card or GPL or both.  This leads to several questions.

1.  Can I run GPL on this system with a Stealth 220 and get 30
reasonable FPS?  What if I
overclock it?

2.  What is the best single card solution for GPL?  TNT or Banshee?

TIA

I have the same setup as yours, except 128MB RAM (I don't think that
matters) and it runs at 36fps nearly all the time with a Stealth 220. BTW I
have not overclocked the Stealth yet - doesn't seem to be any need.

Herc Thriller 8 meg is best. But you might be happy with the Stealth even.

 Yup, Stealth will be fine. I'm sure a Herc is better but you can get
a Stealth II for about $40 which may save you from coming home one day
and finding all your stuff in the street <g>. They just don't
understand us do they?

Ummm. Sure looks like a sys that would run it well. Haven't you
downloaded the demo? www.papy.com . That'll answer all your questions.
