Radeon and GF2 frame rates

[Babrone]

I was just curious how the frame rates of the cards differ in Half Life. All the tests use only Q3 and UT. I know this is due to Half Life not having features like 32 bit color support, but it is the most popular online first person shooter(and the game I play the most). So if anyone has some benchmarks I would appreciate it if they could post them.

Is there some easy way to find out the framerate? I'm playing OF right now and I would be glad to post some of my framerates with a radeon on a duron 7@9 and a p2/300 with a v3 3k.

The thing about half-life is that it is nowhere near video card intensive as Q3 or UT. I get about 72 fps w/ my GTS and Cel 2 566@850, but I think there is a command that caps the max fps. Not sure... Good Luck.

What resolution is that at Chuffmaster??

Yes there is a command that caps frame rates. The command is fps_max x, x being the max number you want. I have heard that the Q2 engine maxes out at 72 fps, but im not sure if this is true. Also, you can use 32 bit color easily in Half-Life, just add -32bpp to your shhortcut's command line.
