Hi I was just wondering how Nascar works on the Pentium 90- I am especially interested in running 30 frames per second or close. Right now I run car texture, skid marks, and smoke/dirt and was wondering if 30 frames per second can be reached using a P-90 in SVGA with those 3 on? Thanks Ken

I have an AMBRA P90 tower (Intel motherboard) with a Diamond Viper PCI video board. With a full field, max draw ahead & behind, max sound ahead & behind, I can only turn on car texture, skid marks, and smoke/dirt and still keep 30 frames per second. If I turn track or wall or grass to auto, it will turn on and off depending on where I am on the track and what kind of traffic I am in. I am NOT running FM sound. I tried that, but with my sound board, it just sounded like a cheap electronic game. Best wishes!!! Robert Huggins

I'm on a p-75 and I can run that. Of course I'm overclocked to P-90, but it runs great!
