Hi all!! After browsing a lot this forum, i really don't know if i'm setting my Radeon 9500Pro the right way.... I usually get around 2100fps on glxgears and a Radeon 9700Pro gets double fps....i don't think this is normal, but who knows, so this is the aim of that thread

I have installed the drivers from ati's webpage, installed the rpm and run fglrxconfig (i didn't compile the modules as the script does it, or it seems....)

I'm using a RH9.0 with kernel 2.4.25 custom made in a Pentium 4 2.4Ghz with 512Mb of ram. XFree res is at 1200x1024.

Thnx to all for your postings.

I've been wondering about this myself. Here's mine:

Fedora Core 1
Kernel 2.6.5 custom
nVidia 5336 drivers
XFree @ 1024x768
Athlon 2500+
nVidia GeForce 5200 FX

glxgears: 2556fps

Mandrake 9.1
Kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk
XF86 at 1024x768
GeForce 3 Ti200
glxgears: 2395.400 FPS

Mandrake 9.0 (kernel version 2.4.19-16mdk)
AMD Athlon 700 MHz
Abit KA7-100
512 MB SDRAM (Kingmax)
PNY GeForce4 MX420 /w 64 MB DDR

700 to 1000 fps with glxgears

I think, I'm using last years nvidia drivers. I have not upgrade for a long time.

glxgears shows you the estimate fps your video card can do. Its best to run Unreal Tournament or another game in batch mode to get a real fps rating. I have not done it yet.

suse 9.0, kernel 2.4.21-99-athlon
AMD Duron 900, AGP4x, 256 MB SDRAM
ATI Radeon 9200 SE, fglrx driver
XF @ 1024x768

glxgears - 1025 fps


but I'll change it to NVidia because somewhy winex doesn't work
the company which sold it to me agreed to do so :-)

14,750 fps in it's default window size

800 to 1000 fps with the window maximized at 1200x1024

SuSE 9.0
Athlon XP 3000+
Nvidia 5900
1 gig DDR 3200
