Benchmarks
Since everything revolves around Quake III, here are the scores. The scores will all
seem high to you, but that's because I use this configuration
file (q3config.cfg Click here for download.) While it may not seem right, I do have some
reasons for doing so:
- The vast majority of players that
want to hit frag limit do not enable all of the "features" that I have
disabled; such as coloured lighting, ejecting brass, etc.
- While the scores are "inflated" a
slower video card is still slower than a faster one, regardless of
tweaks. For example, these same tweaks will not make a TNT2 Ultra faster
than a Geforce DDR with the same settings and tweaks.
- And you get to see my award winning .cfg J .
