I am going to upgrade my CPU (celeron 433) to a P3-733.  I have a Geforce
256 3d card, and 128MB ram.  How will F1-2000 run with the new CPU?

Pretty good, but you will still need to lower some details to get a
nice fast frame rate consistently.

It could've been worse -- he could have just said "GPL."

You'll still have to tone down a lot of the graphics options and not display
all the cars in order to get decent frame rates--unless you can do without
mirrors.  With most of the goodies on, things get OK into a race a ways, but
starts are a killer with anything approaching full graphical detail.  I have
the basic setup you're asking about, except with a P3/800.

I've got a V3 in my P3-733, and I run with most options on High with
mirrors off.

On full grid I get minimum 35fps. During race it'll peak around 60fps.

Cheers,
Rod.

I am also upgrading from a P11  233  V3 setup and I have to run with no
mirrors, graphics toned down, and 11 cars on grid. I am going to a P3 600
and am glad to hear what people have said here, cause I like the game but
would like to run with a full grid and reasonable detail.
Gonna make sure I get a board that will habdle up to 1ghz so in 12 months I
can still be a couple of steps behind the mark.

Your post implies that you think it will make amazing differences.  In
truth, while significant, the differences with the processor upgrade for
F12K probably won't be as great as one expects.

Hit 'R' while in***pit, mirrors gone and double your framerate ;)

Cheers,

"R" toggles the mirrors on / off.
"U" shows tyre condition.
Anybody know any more that aren't in the manual ? :)

Press "R" to toggle the mirrors on and off.
