Yeah, check that before a transplant.

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Did you ever try to OC the core?

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

This is the card btw

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

And i still wish i had a Rage Fury Pro with better memory

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

And now my 98 SE system has decided the registry was broken and set me back a few days of setup. How nice. At this point im just going to wait for the new board

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Yeah 250MHz the card should at least be capable of. As i said, mine is already slightly over the 3.6ns (275MHz) threshold

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Yeah i had luck. My past models were 5ns and 4ns as well and the cores never made 290MHz

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Not bad for a super spoofed up Radeon DDR

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Its my fourth 7500, finally got one with good memory and a good core. Already did 290/230 OOTB. Memory is 3.6ns

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

And that clock on the 7500 is not maxed out. I just wanted slightly faster clocks than the fastest Nvidia MX cards

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Damn, i wonder if i could get half that scores with my Rage Fury Pro on a faster CPU than my K6

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 12h

Driver 4.2, OS is Windows Me, single 512MB DIMM of DDR-266 running CL2-2-2-5.
Board is theretroweb.com/motherboards...

The 7500 is running at 306/286

And before anyone asks, yes i kinda exclusively ended up using AMD ATI combinations

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 13h

Another two years of tech advance gives us these scores

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 17h

Interesting, i can do a quick test on my systems to see if anything is different.

Working on an Unreal video - when using modern renderers, has anyone managed to achieve the current sky color? It’s always wrong compared to the original 3DFX renderer.

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 17h

Do you mean on a modern system? Or a period correct system using either the OpenGL or Direct3D render?

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 1d

This time is a K5 with an ATI Rage Pro. 800x600 runs a lot worse than 640x480 apparently

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

You basically just explained why i tend to avoid third party patches ^^

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

Well thats a third party patch, not a Windows update

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

So that nobody can claim that installation of all the updates until late 2006 reduces performance

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

Oh and im running on a fully updated Windows 98 SE

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

Its btw also the last driver to support all the cards features if you look back at the ATI site in 2001 on the wayback machine. It only got two releases afterwards

CHA0SHACKER @cha0shacker.bsky.social · 2d

Damn, thanks for the comparison.

I picked the best driver i could find (6292) and it runs at 125/143
