>> Need some input on the K6-233 will it run N2,Cart Racing ok? >> Thanks for the info! >I've got a K6-233 and N2 runs great...Haven't tried CART. I second that...I've got a K6-233 with 64 meg of RAM and N2 runs great with no slowdowns with all graphic detail on and drawing like 18-20 cars ahead. The same goes for ICR2/CART Racing. I can't wait for the 3DFX patch for N2..it'll make a great game even better. CPR also runs well with this configuration (and a Monster 3D), but I'm not much for CART cars as they break too easy with me driving. I'd much rather bang it out at Martinsville or Hickory in a stock car instead of doing 230 at Michigan or California in a CART car. Kevin

ahh thats a shame, cuz while 230 is cool, some of the most fun comes doing 60 or less...remember cars can turn right also! dave henrie

Right? What's that? Road courses require much too much thinking for me. I often have a hard enough time turning left, much less left AND right, so I guess you could count me in the LTO crowd. I sometimes like driving at the Glen in N2, but that's about it. If I play ICR2 or CPR, I run at ovals. To each his own, I guess. Kevin

>Need some input on the K6-233 will it run N2,Cart Racing ok? >Thanks for the info! Mine runs N2 with everything on (everything, including 40 cars ahead and behind) With virtually no slowdown at all (I have not been able to notice any slowdown, it seems to run perfectly smooth) of course YMMV system config: K6-233 abit IT5H MB 96 Megs EDO Ram ATI 3D Pro PC2TV W/ 4 megs Win95-B As for Cart, don't know, not my thing, cars are too fragile.

I have a K6 233 overclocked to 266mhz 32 meg Micron EDO simms Ati 3d exp pc2tv video card. ECCI CDS steering wheel. Cart will run Ok. Cannot go full graphics. I run it at the Pentium 100 setting with the lease details. But I prefer to run this sim with less detail and smoother refresh. I believe a better video Card like the Viper V330 or Maybe the new Voodoo II with make it fly. still fly on a K6-200

% I've got a K6-166, overclocked to 187.5 (75 MHz bus x 2.5), and NASCAR2 % runs great with all textures on. Only problem is I can't get Windows 95 % to recognize the Thrustmaster T2 wheel, although DOS does. Are you properly setting up your wheel in Win95 via the control panel? You might want to try using Thrustmaster's ProPanel applet. Make sure that the T2 is set as device ID #1. You can get ProPanel at: ftp://208.129.210.78/pub/library/propanel.exe -- **************************** Michael E.

Just built my new PC with Aopen MB & AMD K6 233 O/C to 3x83mhz (250mhz) N2 Nasrend runs great - the improvement in GP2 is unbelievable. Can't get ICR2 Indyfast or Indysafe to work yet. Cheers Steve
