System is below

ASUS P4T 533 MB
256 RDRAM
Win ME
Direct X 8.1
ATI 9700 Pro
onboard sound

We ran the game in 1600x1200 RAS 32 bit with everything on, it did the test at 36 FPS. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET is all I can say.

It's not my system but the onboard sound has 5.1 capabilities and it sounds good.

Yup but all the work is done by the cpu, not by soundcard chip and this makes difference performance wise.

But the onboard sound has it's on Chip to process all that.

No, go into your BIOS, there should be an option there to disable it.

LoL.. I see an original Geforce 3 everyday, i got one lol, I got the Elsa 920 geforce 3..... Its OK, but i ordered a Creative Geforce 4 Ti4600, YaY LoL........ I get 8100marks from 3D Mark 2001

GP4 runs at 36 frames per second on mine with everything at max, but its at 1280x1024 though lol, but i don't have any monitors that can display 1600x1200 resolution sooooooo i dunno how fast mine would run at that resolution............................

I can overclock my CPU from 2.2 to 2.53ghz LoL and it works and yep theres definately a speed increase lol.............
