I saw no improvement in VQuake or Nascar 2 with the new version of Univbe.
The Quake timerefresh didn't show even .1 fps difference with 5.3a loaded
or not. The Screamin 3D bios are tops according to Next-Generation
magazine so I don't think that Univbe 5.3a is going to help out just yet.
Just my opinion and according to my tests on a P90 with 24 Meg of EDO.
