I have 9800 card
256-bit R350 (4x1) with 128MB before the SoftR9800 patch and 256-bit R350 (8x1) with 128MB after

niiiiiiiice

128bit memory versions of 9800SE's exist as well. And those are pure garbage, of course.

There's all kinds of graphics cards where you can "flash the bios/unlock pipes/overclock" into something better though. 9500Pros to 9700Pros, 6800LE to 6800 or 6800GT (if you're lucky), etc etc.

Looks Like GZDoom Is VERY Cpu bound

just an update, with the fog/lighting working correctly now

Nice system.

holy shit, but what do you get at 1280x1024? i'll have to try at 1024x768 to see what i get.

Edit: just as i thought, GZDoom is cpu bound, i got the same results as i did last time (48/70) at 640x480 and at 1280x1024

The rendering itself almost takes no time at all. That's what I noticed as well.

just a question, what cooling are you using to chill that monster? and is it prime95 stable?

How much did that cost you?

liquid cooled, has to be, lol
and yes, i'm running Prime95 - 23.8 and it's very stable

@Cutmanmike i have around $6000.00 invested in it so far

While my rig is certainly dated in its video card it suffers more from bad airflow than anything else. I can't figure out what else could cause it to run so hot (but I'll try redoing the heat dope anyway) Oh yeah and the motherboard has taken a beating so it's not worth upgrading.

AMD 1.3GHz
NVidia TNT2
128MB RAM (266MHz)
Windows 2000 SP4 (IE and Task Manager removed)

While I haven't really done any testing in that level I plan to now, despite this thread being ancient.
