Hell was there even such a thing as a pixel pipeline in the TNT2 days?
Oddly enough, the Radeon 7000 didn't do THAT terribly in Quake 3 Arena, at 1024x768
Naturally of course HL2 will be horrendous, but if it's only pushing the same resolution and the same feature set at it, it should be a bit more than 2fps. (That review is on a Mac.) Nobody seems to have bothered actually reviewing it in a PC. The Radeon also supports a higher DirectX version of course, so it'll LOOK a lot better.
from what i remember a 7000 is basically a renamed radeon 1? about equiv to a geforce 1 which is faster than a tnt2
tnt was primitive stuff, it was before we got full blown gpus with transform and lighting. i think some newer games won't even play on a tnt2, just not supported.
