I just found a 3D prophet 4000 in an old box I had lying around. I was wondering what this card would be equivilent to as far as known stuff like GF 1?

Says it is close to the GF 4?
That cant be right can it?
This benchmarking software puts the card through some rigorous graphics tests. Acceptable scores for today's games range from 500 (lower GeForce2 cards) upwards to 3000 ( GeForce4 Ti4600). The 3DP4XT got a super commendable score of 1498.

Thanks for the clarification. It's just that its been about 3 years since I remember those cards being in the think of things and I forgot the terminalogy of what they did to keep fps up. Didnt they use an Nvidia chipset though?Voodoo Rufus said:The rendering method you refer to TUK101 is tile rendering. ATI and Nvidia cards ar getting better each generation at tossing out unrendered pixels, but without using tiles (takes a whole new architecture from what I understand). The cards were DX7 compliant as they did not have T&L integrated, but did average the performance of a GF2 Pro.
