For comparison, my RagePro achieves about 80 on the gears testing, not much slower than software rendering on the P3-600 processor itself, while the G200 achieves about 350 in hardware rendering. However, you have to take into account that this is without texturing. Texturing is incredibly slow in software, which is why you can run FlightGear in hardware on the RagePro but not worth trying in software. > > Considering how cheaply you can get modern, well supported cards, > > this might be the best option . . . > ..thanks, will do over Easter. > Which one (agp) fits my 450 box the best? If you don't mind closed source drivers, spend money on NVidia. Basically, buy something that'll run (eg) Quake well on linux. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
