Okay, we just replace the Geforce 2 Ultra in my friends P4 1.5ghz system with the Ti4600, it made zero difference in FPS, explain this to me please. At 1600x1200x32 fps in back of field on pit road 23 same as GF2 using the excact same settings and the 41.09 drivers on both cards. Weird thing is his poly rate never changes still on 496 and mine on a 2.53P4 system and the Ti4600 only 350.30 but I get faster FPS by about 10 FPS. What does this game need, something not yet out?
I have a Ti4400 with everything but Solar Flares and Shadows turned on and in a FULL FIELD at Daytona I am pulling 40-60fps depending on where I am. 1280X1024X16 no FSAA D3D. Just sitting in one place is not a good test for fps. You need to get out in a full field of traffic and test that way. If you are not getting WAY better performance out of a Ti4600 than a Geforce2 Ultra, then something is very, very wrong. The most consistent way to test is to pick one track, set it to full field, skip all the way to the race so you always start at the rear, and then watch the readings during the pace lap to the green. That's the most consistent, repeatable test you can do, and most importantly it's under a real-time load, not just sitting in the pits where things are changing around you.

I tested both and my fps were nearly identical (D3D). No sense missing the higher quality textures if it makes not difference. AMD 1600+ 512MB Ram GF4 Ti 4400 -- Joe M.
