If you mean glxgears, here's what I'm getting on a "built by" Radeon 9000 Pro 
with the 3.3ns memory chips, on an Abit KX7/Athlon 1700+ cpu. I don't know if 
this is good or not, and don't play games at all- just posting it for a 
reference. This is with the stock Mandrake Radeon driver. I would think on 
similar hardware, the Radeon 8500 should do as good, or a little better. The 
scores are higher if the actual gear window is behind a console window- don't 
know what that means, if anything.
