He manage to run Call of Duty2 and Fear on a V2 SLI rig. ( low resolution but anyway ... ) He used tweaked drivers and tweaked config file... A driver developer ?

Voodoo5's especially are CPU limited. With a 1.4GHz Pentium3 you'll get about 1500 points in 3DMark2001se with a Voodoo5 5500. With an AthlonXP 2000+/2200+ you'll get about 2500 points and with an AthlonXP 3000+ you can expect about 3000 points.

It's mostly because they lack HW T&L.

Check out the benchmark pages at Gary's site for example;

BTW is the FEAR video "REALLY" legit - is there any CONFIRMED proof that he wasn't just faking the whole thing... If there are tweaked drivers and config files for FEAR - is he willing to share?

Maybe the guy has some tweaked drivers Who knows ? If it's really runing on v2, then on a V5 would FLY ! We have to contact this guy .... I send him an PM

m14radu God Member Offline Take your chance ! Posts: 555 Timisoara, Romania Gender:	Re: Youtube videos Reply #9 - 28.02.09 at 19:57:47 I agreed with that. It must be running on the geforce3... I suppose the guy believe that the game is rnning on voodoo cards I send him an pm and he ask for my email adress, in order to send me the drivers. I'm curios about what i would get ...
