Hi you all, I am thinking of buying GP2, but I would like to know if it uses the 160 MHz. It is quit fast in normal operation (like a P100), but very SLOW with FPU-operations. Anyone uses this CPU for GP2 ?

I've got a Cyrix P166 and it runs it pretty well in SVGA at 19.6 frames with no sky and only track details in mirrors... I purposely set it below the recommended 23.6 and even at this speed it slows down during starts and heavy traffic.
