K6-2 and K6-3 Upgrade Guide

MDK2

Similar to what we found in Quake III Arena, we once again find that performance essentially levels off with the GeForce 256 DDR and the GeForce2 MX. In 32-bit color, the GeForce2 MX is able to dominate the base system's TNT by over 1100%. We can see how a video card can be such an enormous bottleneck in an aging system.

The results from above are essentially mirrored in the faster K6-3 450 MHz case. System speed becomes an issue at around the GeForce 256 DDR / GeForce2 MX speed.
