Hello,
I've been playing around with my IBM Aptiva, specifications are...
IBM Aptiva
58XA Motherboard
AMD K6 300mhz
256mb SD-RAM (1x256mb)
16mb Voodoo 3 2000 PCI Graphics Card
O/B Crystal Audio Sound Card
40Gb WD IDE Hard Drive
48x IDE CD-ROM
Windows 98 SE /with Unofficial Service pack

Just got round to benchmarking it, since I'm finding performance on 3D Games (Glide/OpenGL) is a tad slow.
SisSoft Sandra '99 Standard
Whilst the processor benchmark seems OK, Memory and FPU looks dire, esp when compared to the weak IDT WinChip. I've tried a number of sticks of RAM, all give me around about the same.
Quake 3 @ 800x600 (demo1) - 15fps
Quake 2 @ 800x600 (Timedemo) - 30fps
3DMark '99 - 1168 3Dmarks, 1582 CPUmarks.
Do these benches/fps figures look OK? I'm assuming the chip is not a K6-2, but just a K6 hence the performance gaps.
