coincidently the author of noghost maverick posted something today re: the physics of q3 related to pmove_fixed with a summarised explanation - also linking the more detailed stuff. Note the title : com_maxfps and game performance http://forums.noghost.net/cgi-bin/ib/ikonboard.cgi?s=9b3903a1a06bf4ee0b336f52f614d388;act=ST;f=9;t=4425(ignore pmove_accurate because oa doesnt support that) ok I'm not badly affected because I can maintain a stable 125, but alot of people cant.. which puts them at a major disadvantage. lets hope these server admin / hosters take note ah ok .. so you didnt just pick a random number after all  So, when testing values for com_maxfps, these are the only numbers it really makes sense to try:
200
166
142
125
111
100
90
83
76
71
66
62
58
55
52
50
47
45
43
40-41
37-38
20-35 75hz with vsync gives me 1 less jump unit height than 125 and can still make the same jumps in maps with it. |

NVidia GeForce 9600 GT At $100 it's the best value for the buck you'd find through 2008 and up to now I like that NVidia actively supports Linux... very important to have manufacturer-made drivers! |

Sad. Now integrated and mobile graphics have surpassed my 7800GS AGP with 256mb. They need 512mb to do it though!

I tried choosing all of them since I do actually own the entire range of the options, but I was stuck to two. This sucked.

I never knew so many people had crappy video cards hahaha. Until last week I had a Nvidia GeForce 7900 GS, but since I was playing on a burnt out card for about a year, one of my homeboys from Q4 sent me a BFG 8800 GT OC'd edition card.

Nvidia 6150 SE integrated graphics.  OA is the only game I play for PC. I dont feel like putting in $150 for a new Power Supply and graphics card for a free game. 640X480 resolution FTW. |

640x480 is a little small, but I agree that it doesn't always need to be like 1600x900 or something (800x600 is for me minimum actually)

I have a 3D Labs Oxygen VX1 with 32MiB of memory. It's not a gaming card and quirky drivers don't really help at all.
Recently I acquired a nVIDIA TNT2 M64 graphics card (32 MiB). I also had a Matrox G200 8 MiB.
I actually play OpenArena on my primary computer which has a Radeon X600 Pro(did not measure framerate, but did not experience any difficulty running OA on all high settings and resolution 1152x864), and will hopefully get a Geforce 6600 GT 256 MiB in the next month or so.
Up until 2005 my only computer had a graphics card with 256 KiB(yes, it says kibibytes) of memory.

So you lived on standard 320x200x8/640x480x4 VGA all this time? Jeez! It wasn't until 1991 when I moved up away from 256kb to a 512kb RealTek card. |

We'll due to financial issues and stuff, plus I live in a shitty country I had to make ends meet with a reject computer from our school. However, I learned a lot with these things. Especially why optimization is sometimes necessary. I'm glad that era ended.
BTW, It could go up to 800x600x4.

Upgraded to an 512MB DDR3 Nvidia 9600GT a while back, and recently got a 2.8gig triple-core AMD processor as well. /timedemo 1 3190 frames 4.0 seconds 794.9 fps 0.0/1.3/3.0/0.4 ms ]/condump fps.txt Dumped console text to fps.txt. Pretty decent fps!!! |

I has a Radeon 4850 with 512MB.
I also have a second identical card and a motherboard that can do Crossfire, but the one card is apparently enough to play UT3 and CoD4 at 1600x1200 and >30FPS, so I never bothered to figure out how to Crossfire them.
