I thought a comparison might help some of those people asking questions about hardware, so I'll go first. My system: p233 overclocked to 250, 64 Mb RAM, v-Raptor PCI 8 Mb (Rendition 2200 card) At the back of an 18 car grid with all detail on, I got the following frame rates: Grid before start: ~35 fps Just after green flag: ~15-16 fps Going into first corner: ~20 fps Spinning in first corner ;) ~10 fps How 'bout y'all?
How big is the L2 Cache of your motherboard? 256 KB, 512 KB or 1MB? My system is very similar (P233MMX, Hercules Thriller 3D, 48 MB RAM) but my fps are definitely less... :-( JP
