Is anybody whose bought the retail version of N2002 using it with a Voodoo5 card? I'd be curious about its performance (framerates. etc), as the demo had some artifacts on screen with the V5. My system is an Athlon XP1700+ with 512 Megs RAM, and I'm wondering if it's worthwhile getting N2002. How does it's performance compare with N4 (which I already have installed).... Thanks. Bert

I haven't had any problems with the demo, in fact I get a little better framerate with NR2002 than I did with N4 What drivers and OS are you using? I'm using the 3Dfx 1.04.01 beta drivers with Win98SE My system: ECS K7S5A Athlon XP 1700+ 256meg PC133 Voodoo5 5500 AGP@ 185Mhz Mandrake 8.1 Win98 SE

Thanks for the info... I'm using Driver # 4.12.01.0666 dated 11-2-2000 with Win98SE. The artifacts in the demo were prety minor -- the track appeared red in the distance. I also thought that the demo framrates were a bit better than the N4 frame rates. So it appears that the framerates in the retail version are also a bit better than N4? KwkRide wrote:

I have a V5 and Win98SE. I had the same red track in the distance in the demo. I was going to hold off buying N2002, but I heard that you could use OpenGL so I'm hoping that will fix the problem.
