And now with 7174, same box:

Hopefully, 7174 has rectified all the issues that
made 7167 somewhat sill-born
for so many folks...
I've never used glxgears before, so I decided to
give it a whirl on my
frontend. I get *much* smaller numbers:
3057 frames in 5.0 seconds = 611.400 FPS
3172 frames in 5.0 seconds = 634.400 FPS
3162 frames in 5.0 seconds = 632.400 FPS
3173 frames in 5.0 seconds = 634.600 FPS
Of course, my system is very different from yours,
so I'm curious which
particular difference between the systems makes the
most difference in
the rendering speed.
I suspect the two most relevant factors are CPU and
GPU. First, I only
have an Athlon XP 2400. Second, my mobo is a 7NIF2,
so I'm using the
integrated MX 440. Do both of these have a big
influence, or would you
say one is more important than the other?
I'm curious mostly because I still see some tearing
when playing DVDs
and I'm wondering if I should upgrade the video card
or the CPU. I'm
very happy with the current quality of my TV output,
though that might
change if I switch to HDTV.
Thanks.

Try cat /proc/drivers/nvidia/agp/status and see if agp
is enabled.
hardin[/home/bs7452]% cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status: Enabled
Driver: AGPGART
AGP Rate: 4x
Fast Writes: Disabled
SBA: Disabled
Looks like it's enabled. Does the other stuff look correct for an MX 440?
