Picture quality a bit worse on these as they are turned down to JPG (used Paint when I did that so may be even worse then they should be for all I know). Don't know why the text got blurry on these pics, sharp as a knife edge in game and on the BMP screens.

Screens taken at 1280x1024 Resolution 32bit color, unlimited FPS and all sliders and other settings at default.

After I took these I increased resolution to 1600x1200 and I get the same if not even slightly better frame rate.

P4 2.4Ghz.
512Mb Rambus 533Mhz RDRAM.
Radeon 9700 non Pro, BIOS flashed to Pro and Overclocked to 350 core frequency and 300 memory frequency. Zalman heatsink + fan for custom cooling.

Cataclyst 4.3 Drivers. Rage 3D tweak used to tweak to "optimal performance".

The Optimal performance settings will most likely decrease picture quality some, however it's nothing that I notice when flying (or care about for that matter).

If I take two screenshots and put them next to another, one being optimal performance and one being optimal quailty I will probarly see some difference but not much.

Have used vsync on and off and do not suffer with rubber bullets.
Well not unless its Wilby in my sights ;)

However i do have to say i am impressed with Zmegs fps reading with a Nvidia 4200 as if correct its approx 100 fps better than a Radeon 9800 pro can manage.

Which would still appear to be unexpected.

I haven't tested these settings in AH2 online yet so I can't comment on the stutter thing Eagler, will try it tonight and let you know.

other then that it feels pretty much the same, just +100 to 120 fps or so.

Well Cav, I do my best to stay out of your sights, it's not a place I wanna be :)

And yeah, Zmegs's got impressive FPS, IMO My 9700 Radeon should beat his.

What frame rate can your monitor support though?

As for v-sync, Skuzzy always said it causes other problems aswell as rubber bullets.

The monitor has no limitations as far as I know when it comes to Frame rate. Frequency is often missunderstood with frame rate. My monitor frequency is 75Hz at 1600x1200. It doesn't affect frame rate though.
