>>>Sure, Intel has done it. Quake is maximized for the Pentium. The Pentium II will run quake faster. Every kid should have their parents buy them a Pentium II, Spend $2000+ so the kid can play a stupid game. Of course, a 6x86MX with a Monster 3d Voodoo will run it quite well too. <<< Last I heard ID was maximizing Quake II for the MediaGX by replacing the FPs with Integer math. What is Quite well in Frames per Second? I wasn't interest in a comparison with a Pentium 166 but to a PII which is what the MediaGX is usually compared to. Anyways NSM/CYRIX was supposedly working on better Floating point anyways. cl
