?? 486/66 & NASCAR

A freind of mine has a 486/66 8MB Ram & his graphics are very choppy. I have a pentium/90 and everything is ok. what we weren't sure of was does he have to get a pentium/90 or can increase the speed of his 486. *MB of RAM should be ok shouldn't it. Any advice would be helpful.

Just a personal note on my situation. I dropped in an extra 8 megs of RAM, to bring my 486/66 to 16 megs, and about the only difference I found with NASCAR or ICR2 is that occasionally I get the trees or signage that is alongside the track. I run with cars on, smoke on, and nearly everything else on auto.

Get a DX4100 or 120. I have a AMDDX4120 and NASCAR is running close to Pentium 90 speeds. Cheaper too! Jive
