Let's see what 3DMark2000
thinks...
Well according to
3DMark2000, the MX400 scales pretty well compared to it's older brother the
GeForce DDR and ATI's Radeon. However, it's no where close to the GeForce 3.
Let's take a look at something a little newer.
3DMark2001 is a
better indicator of things to come... More and more games coming out will be DX8
compliant.
