question for Voodoo5 owners

I was wondering how Viper Racing and TOCA 2 look with FSAA enabled. I also understand that NFS Porsche looks amazing with the V5. Can anyone post or e-mail screenshots of these titles? Thanks. Also can anyone with an HP Pavilion computer either confirm or deny compatibility issues I have read about with the V5? Thanks. Doug

Viper looks amazing. I pulled it off the shelf just to see 4xFSAA. All I can say is wow, it's gorgeous. Running at 40+ fps to boot. My rig: about movement. You have to see it to believe it. -- Joe Marques Please remove "NO SPAM" to e-mail me.

yeah it shines up and does a bit better on the frame rate than a V3. das goot dave henrie "Greg Cisko" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:PvO75.14754$[email hidden]...

Well, that's what I'm doing, except I figure my GF256 is 85%, so I'm skipping 90% for 95%. :-) Won't be long. Jerry Morelock

Hush, Nos, Hush! That shimmering has always been my biggest bitch about F12K, and now you're telling me that the V5 has a cure for it? At playable framerates? Oh, maannn . . . my bank account can't stand this. Jerry Morelock

Well, that's what I've had in mind, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to turn off all this card banter or risk having to indulge myself immediately. :-) Makes me wish I'd ordered this Dell with a "throwaway" TNT2 instead of the GF256 like I started to do, for just this reason. Oh, well, since it's vidcards I won't have to wait long for the next generation anyway. Jerry Morelock

Same with F1 2000. But, in some ways 640x480 really does look better than 1024x768 if the game suffers from masive shimmering, like F1 2000 does. -- Nos

On Mon, 3 Jul 2000 11:15:35 -0400, "chainbreaker" :-) I've got a better idea. Wait for the V5 6000 and then you should be able to run it at 800x600+ 4X FSAA. -- Nos
