I am still in shock that putting my 6600 agp leadtek with my xp 2600 CPU is
working out better then my "old" AMD 64 system. But I plan on starting to
build an nforce 4 system soon I think now casue of my experience. Gotta get
a motherbaord that is ready for dual cores u know lol

13x166, like a 3000+ for 333.
Trainz has both opengl and directx. The ti4200 ran a tiny bit faster in
opengl, but the 6600GT is significantly faster in directx. You can't tell
until you get to a less detailed area where the cpu can feed it enough
info. to get a good framerate. (I'm always running user-made stuff that's
super-detailed).
I'm talking about 12fps in some areas -- same for MS Train Simulator, 3rd
party railroads. The Aoteoroa line in Trainz starts out at 9fps in the big
city.
I was so hoping I wouldn't need an A64. Well, they really overclock on the
nforce 3 ultra, so I could use the slowest cpu and make it a $450 cpu. I
hear Trainz is smooth on them.
