You mean processor clockspeed?

Well, I have currently 378 MHz Celeron, originally 300MHz. It was running at 450 MHz until recently when it started to act unstable so I was forced to lower the clock speed.

I ordered new CPU and motherboard yesterday, AMD Thunderbird 1400/266 and Asus A7V. I also ordered equipment for watercooling so I think I might be able to push it up to 1600 - 1800 MHz speeds  :)

When you uprage, upgrade enough!

more or less what i was trying to do was get an idea of how many ppl actually play this game on a 500mhz cpu or less. I know my 500mhz cpu is just barely holding on.

My PIII 600 manages fine, till it's low and over a dmaged base. Then forget it.

 Mad, you should win an award for that  :)

I've got a PII 400 Mhz fully tuned up as best I can and get 35 to 50 FPs online and 18 to 20 in smoke. I run in 32 bit 1024x768 with a Geo2 card. No chit.

However I have been studying the purchase of a barebones system because I like all the other stuff I have...

Celeron 500 here (which I can't clock   :mad: ) - running 1024 x 768 32bit and getting ok rates (20 to hi 30's) but have to o/c my Rage card to do it.  The DX8 beta still knocks 10 - 15 fps off my rate tho.  Going to upgrade to a 800 Celeron soon I hope.

I see there are alot more ppl here playing with what you might call the slower rigs.
My father has a E-Machine computer that runs at 366 mhz and has a voodoo II 8 meg card. He gets real good performance out of it. Better than my 25-50 fps.
