Does anyone have any idea of what would be the minimum system required to get playable (over 15fps) framerates in Nascar 4. I currently have a PII 400, 96mb ram, and a Voodoo 3 2000, should i be able to get by with this system.

You have the recommended system, so it should be fine. http://www.bhmotorsports.com/e3_report/nascar4.htm Jason.

Kai has stated in another thread that a PII 450 should work well. the MINIMUM is a PII 266, I'd take that with a grain of salt....ie 3 cars drawn no detail no sky no stands etc. I'm of the opinion that many different levels of systems will be able to get N4 running, but I'm doubtful all but the most powerful will be able to see N4 in all it's graphic glory. dave henrie Patrick Shumar wrote: > > Does anyone have any idea of what would be the minimum system required > to get playable (over 15fps) framerates in Nascar 4.

and I got that from the BHMS preview, second hand information, but pretty good second hand. Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

For some this is fine. I'm still running GPL with a V2 and I get along, but for some this would not be enough. I'm always very sceptical about reccomended systems.

He was talking about playable over 15fps too. For me 30+ is playable in general but of course GPL needs the full 36fps. The N4 recommended system (P400) should be able to do 15fps you would think. :-) Jason. Kevin Gavitt wrote:
