Hey there.
I got one of these very nice VLB motherboards. A FIC 486-GVT-2
then i grabbed 2 VLB cards, both were trident cards.
I got 8 megs of ram.
the CPU is one pentium dx4 Overdrive 100mhz ( the ones that come with a heatsink kind of purple black, that gets hot like CRAZY)
and an AWE32 card
i thought that with that setup all games would run perfect.
a] Tried DOOM1.... seems fine but on the first level if the room is big ..it starts to loose frames, and if i move around 360 degrees i see slowdowns. Game is fine on small corridors.
b] then tried Doom2, same thing. Its not so slow, When i play, I get the feeling like the game runs at 30fps but on some parts it drops to 20fps
C] then runned 3dbench and 3dbench2 and both give me a score of around 55.
Is that normal? or its the trident cards the issue.
