GPL-System question

by Joerg Unkelbac » Wed, 17 Feb 1999 04:00:00

I have a KMD 300 Mhz System, 64MB RAM with a 3D accelerator yet to be
installed. Is this system suitable for GPL with all details on, or would
I have a lot of the good stuff off? Thanks for your help!

I've got the same rig. I've got a v1000 rendition card and a Diamond
Monster II (12megs). With no details except car texture in my mirrors,
no fire, no dust I get just over 20 fps with a full field. I've got the
detail down to 1/3rd, as well. It's definitely not fast enough. Sorry to
say this but you may need more cpu power. Hope not.

I am running a system quite similar to yours with the exception of 128 megs
of RAM.  Monster II 12 meg video.  You did not mention if your RAM was 100
mhz (helps tons)  I have had nothing but GREAT results from my system.  I do
host often with up to 15 people online (thanx to cable modem)  And never
have a FPS issue.

Good luck

You'd probably ***it somewhat with all graphics and cars on, but you
should be able to tweak it to  your liking with a decent 3d accelerator.
