That is a significant improvement over the 7500 M7 LW which gives: [default size] 4293 frames in 5.0 seconds = 858.600 FPS 4626 frames in 5.0 seconds = 925.200 FPS 4723 frames in 5.0 seconds = 944.600 FPS 4703 frames in 5.0 seconds = 940.600 FPS 4722 frames in 5.0 seconds = 944.400 FPS 3048 frames in 5.0 seconds = 609.600 FPS [1024x768] 640 frames in 5.0 seconds = 128.000 FPS 643 frames in 5.0 seconds = 128.600 FPS 652 frames in 5.0 seconds = 130.400 FPS 644 frames in 5.0 seconds = 128.800 FPS [1600x1200] 302 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.400 FPS 304 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.800 FPS I wonder how much is due to the 7800 (is that mobile or desktop?) being faster than the 7500m, and how much is due to the different driver? -JimC _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
