Matrox G400 MAX by Leonard "Viking1" Hjalmarson
	Falcon 4 Benchmarks All tests in Falcon 4 were done in the Dogfight module by selecting FURBALL and flying without any opponent. All tests were with full realism, clouds ON and texture smoothing ON. Both lift line and reflections were also ON. All other object and detail settings were untouched and identical for all tests on all boards. The final TE tests were run in a TE campaign of my own creation flying an early HAVCAP mission with a single wingman. The environment was active with an ongoing ground war and many flights in the air, and the same settings as above were used with BUBBLE set to 3. F4 1024 and 8x6 F4 1024 2d cockpit. Click to continue		Strike Mission in F4 Actual measurements in the TE mission resulted in 31 fps and 48 fps under V3 3000, 2d and no cockpit view respectively. Actual measurements for the G400 MAX were 34 and 54 fps for 2d cockpit and no cockpit view respectively. All settings were identical at 1024x768 resolution and the 1024 beta cockpit was used for 2d measurements. Finally, curious about moving to an even higher resolution, I tested the G400 no cockpit view in the Dogfight module at both 1024x768 and 1152x864. Oddly, Voodoo3 under Glide gave me almost the same result as the G400 in the no cockpit view. The G400 tested at 72 fps at 1024x768, and at 62 fps at 1152x864. V3 under Glide was limited to 1024x768.
