Check your XF86Config files on both machines. I see a roughly 25% drop in frame rate if I use 24 bit color over 16 bit. Are you quoting frame rates at the default window size or at full screen? I am seeing >6000 F/sec at the default window size and 320 F/sec full screen. I'm running at 1600x1200 and 16 bit color. I'm using an Nvidia GeForce4 video card. Your card should be fairly close in frame rate depending on your chipset.
