How do I benchmark my Geforce 3

[jaytone]

HI
I just bought two Gainward Geforce 3's One is a Geforce 3 and the other is a Geforce 3 Ti 200
I installed the drivers from the Gainward Disk on both. I see that there are Nvidia reference drivers 21.81, 21.83 and 23.11
I am running 22.40 that came off the Gainward disk.
So, here are my questions.

1. I would like to run a benchmark with the current driver installed but dont know how to do it. Do I need a special program ? I have the following games installed : UT, Max Payne, Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

2. Can anyone recommend if I should use one of the above mentioned Nvidia Reference drivers and if so, which one ?

Many thanks

You can benchmark UT buy using the builtin cityintro:

timedemo 1
open cityintro

To benchmark the other games, read Anandtech's latest Radeon 8500 reviews and he explains which files you need to download and how to run the benchmark.

You may also want to try 3DMark 2001. You can pick it up atwww.madonion.com It will test all your cards features including pixel and vertex shading. Hope that helps
