I got a chance to go out to my workshop today and do a benchmark because of curiosity. Here's my setup on the desk.
PowerMac G5 @ 2.3Ghz
Ati Radeon X800
One thing I found out on this setup is in quake lower screen resolutions gave me lower FPS than higher resolutions. Go figure. Anyhow at 1600x1200 and EVERYTHING maxed out I got 114.9 fps.
I was out in the workshop tonight to do some more benchmarking. Talking to a freind I realized when I said everything "maxed out", I was slightly off. I had "Vertex" selected instead of "Lightmap" for the above numbers. I don't have that card installed ATM, but I do have an X1950pro (PC rom) that is now working tops in my G5. Here are a couple quick benches. I'll probably do more on my G5 2.7 with screenshots and/or video, but not tonight and probably in a more appropriate thread.
Test system:PowerMac G5 @ 2.3Ghz
Ati Radeon X1950pro
1280x1024 with Vertex with EVERYTHING maxed out I got 206.5 fps
1600x1200 with Lightmap and EVERYTHING maxed out I got 147.3 fps
This X1950pro really, really lays the lumber! I'll probably try out Tower 57 soon to see how that handles it. I also look forward to pulling out my G5 2.7.
