| Hi once again. Sorry for the lack of updates yesterday
, however I was away from a computer from 6am - 11pm , so I really didn't
have any time. However , I will make up for this today. Here is what is
coming today , guaranteed!
(1) Outlaw 3D review (preliminary)
(b) DirectDraw , 2D Speedmark , Turok , Quake(2) , Final Reality , and Image quality comparisons (c) A New look I promise that all of the above WILL be up by today! I will upload portion at a time , so that you can view one part while you wait for the rest. Once again I apologize for the lack of updates. |
| Hi! I have some good and bad news for you all. First the good news... I downloaded the Beta drivers for the Velocity 128 and they do offer a significant increase in speed. In Quake2 , using 5mb of RAM texture memory , the drivers yielded 9.1fps (640x480 , high quality sound , highest quality everything...) This may not seem like much , however , the RIVA is a very CPU-dependent card (These results on a 6x86Lpr200) and this is a pretty big improvement over the previous 7.6fps. Click here for the updated review. |
| The BAD news... Well , to put it in simplest terms , the Outlaw 3D won't work properly. It gives protection errors (Windows protection error , you need to restart...) and causes another problem which will not allow me to switch the video mode. If anyone is experiencing these problems (or similar) please e-mail me. It may have to do with the fact that I am using a Cyrix chip.. (100% compatibility?) Anyway , I am working on these problems and I will keep you posted. |
| More to come today , so keep visiting ...
New benchmark page (added DirectDraw and Quake2 performance , Intergraph Intense 3D results) Also , A site change is in the midst... possible tomorrow... |
| THE NEW BENCHMARK PAGE IS HERE! |
|
|
| Hi. A few updates for you before I post the preliminary review of the Intense 3D Pro Voodoo. First of all , my contact at Oak tech. emailed me today and informed me that Metabyte (www.metabyte.com) will still be actively marketing its Warp 5 based Wicked 3D. This means that the Warp 5 chip will make its way to the market! |
| RIVA OpenGL **BETA** drivers were released. I will get my hands on these drivers sometime very soon and right an updated review of the Velocity 128 as soon as I get this Intense 3D Voodoo review uploaded. (The review WILL BE UP by today) |
| The Intense 3D Voodoo review is up! Expect a benhcmark page update with Intense 3D Voodoo scores as well as DirectDraw benchmarks , Quake2 benchmarks , and more! |
| It looks as if this site is about to move from tripod sometime soon..Finally , the dreaded Pop-up window...gone! As you can see by the sloppy News header , I have NO time right now , but expect those benchmarks of the Intense along with a new benchmarks tests for all the cards. |
|
|
| Intergraph Intense 3D Voodoo has arrived! This time , I was there to pick it up :) So far , the board has installed flawlessly , and the performance (especially 2D) is better than I expected. Expect a review and benchmarks real soon! |
|
|
| Today , I promise that some of the CPU page will be up (if not all)!! |
| The Intergraph Intense 3D Voodoo arrived today , unfortunately , I was not there to pick it up. It will be here tomorrow , so expect a review very soon. |
| Updated links section. Added a link to www.benchmarkresources.com and www.capacityplanning.com |
| It's here , the CPU glimpses page. Expect more of it up tommorow , along with a glimpse of the Intergraph Intense 3D Voodoo , w/a full review to follow. |
|
|
| Once again , I have to bore you with these lame excuses...So
I will spare you this time :)
However , I have just received news that I will be receiving an Intense 3D Voodoo board for review. Expect a review of this very soon! Sorry for the lack of updates , however , I have been very busy this week. Hopefully I will manage to get at least part of the new CPU page up today. Thank you for your patience and please don't give up on me :) |

| Yes , I have updated the site even more! I changed the
nav bar and added moer graphics. CPU page is coming!! (with more updated
info , of course) , check it out by the end of the day.
Oh yeah...i have received emails tellimg me some of the Nav bar items don't work. I am aware of that , just I haven't finished porting everything over from the old version yet. Please be patient , a new page (or more than one) is going up every day! Right now im going to eat , and then get back to work :) |

Come back in an hour or so to see some new stuff (hopefully :) Also , I hope you noticed that I added little notes above. These notes will not be archived into the Old News section , so bookmark the stuff you wanna see again and come back tomorrow for more "points of interest" |
| I added the links page. If you want your page added , e-mail me! Also , the Old News page is up. I am taking a short break now , however expect some glimpses up by the end of today. (I will be 'porting' some of the old pages to the new format) |
