Re: Worst fastest early 3D cards questions

386SX wrote on 2024-03-17, 13:52: I wonder why Powerstrip seems to read ram clock (40Mhz) but not the chip clock at all and of course you can't increase that. Need to check memory timings as well. Both chip and memory clocks are controlled by that one value.

Re: Worst fastest early 3D cards questions

For what it's worth, i740 was a decent card. Very good rendering quality and speed, compared to all garbage that was released only one year prior. It also had pretty decent market penetration. Which was the better built and/or fastest board using the i740? All AGP cards have the same clock. PCI …

Re: Rendition Verite Thread

I need to push it to 90-100mhz to compare to voodoo 2 and Nvidia riva 128... ;) How about downclocking those two to Vérité levels? hahhaha yes but I won't do this, well, the idea is not to make the riva 128/voodoo2 bad, it's to make the Rendition to same level (well as Anthony's comment, it seem's …
