I gues you know the obvious question... if anyone put down the dollars, is GP2 any better now? Can someone finally run (assuming the person purchased a video card with at least 4megs of RAM maybe 6) with all the details on, and still get at least a framerate of 23, maybe more? Some how I'm guessing GP2 users will be unhappy. PI
I used to think that, and it generally is the case with most 2D cards. Some of the newer 3D cards use the extra RAM as a cache for the textures and this allows a faster frame rate. I'm now guessing, but if the card has much faster on-board RAM, and it was used as a frame buffer, would this also give a faster frame rate?
