Max Payne 2 Performance on Geforce 3?

[Blurry]

I just bought MP2 yesterday and I'm wondering how well I can run the game on my Geforce 3.
System Specs:
P4 1.8A o/c 2.7GHZ
Geforce 3 @240/550
512 DDR 433 ram

Would i be able to run the game at 1024 x 864 32bit (no FSAA or AF)?

Well, Driver Heaven was pulling 60+ fps with a 5700U (with XP2600+) on MP2 at 10x7. I guess you can expect around 30fps or more average on your system. That should be decently playable. This is a total guess, though, and I suspect your GF3 just might be able to swing 40fps, judging by its fillrate.

Edit: Whoops, link.

mine runs perfectly smoothly on a geforce 3. Max payne 2 1024x768 2xaa and af
Athlon @ 2.3ghz
Geforce 3 @ 220/490
latest 52.16

If an FX 5700U gets 60 fps, I'd expect more than 30fps for a GF3 Ti. It should run Max Payne quite well.

I run at a frame rate where I can see no slowdown most of the time on my Radeon 8500, which is probably around 40 or 50 fps, and Geforce3 shouldn't be much different.

EDIT: I run at 1280x960 with all settings at max, AA off.

Totally smooth here 1024x768 4xFSAA, 8xAA, low detail shadows, maximum detail otherwise.
GF3 + CeleronT 1300MHz. W00T.

I'm running fine at 1280X1024 no fsaa or AA.

If you already bought it why not just try it out and see how it does?

The game does run well on most video cards though. I see no reason why it wouldn't run at 10x7 on your system.

there was 8xAA back in the GF3 days? I always thought it was 4xAA 4xAF... but then again I haven't used an nVidia card since the FX5600U so I dunno about driver updates.

Uh..I don't even have 8xAA on my gf4, so that must be a typo.

I think he meant 4XFSAA and 8X AF. I have both of those on my GF3

Also, I don't remember running Max Payne 1 on my GF4 Ti4400 smoothly with 4xAA and 4xAF... another typo?

Runs fine @1280x1024 on default high mode without AA/AF on. With AA/AF enabled, performance is a bit less smooth but very playable. (Only fire scenes does the card take a serious hit). I'd imagine your performance should be fast enough to play without getting annoyed or sea sick.

Ran just fine in 1024x768@32bit with only an occasional slow down.
