Hey all! I'm a newbie to the forum, but a quick check back leads me to believe that this hasn't been mentioned / caught yet. I was looking over Macworld's bench tests of the new iMacs, and decided to nab the 20" 2.4 GHz one. I intend to do a lot of graphic design work on it, and for that kind of thing I'm satisfied with performance so far.
But one thing bugs me: I tried the UT2004 DEMO (NOT the full game, I don't have the Mac version), and the framerate was terrible. As in, sub 20. I have read that the 2600 Pro isn't stellar, but Macworld's benchmark quite clearly indicates that UT2004 should be running over 80 frames, and on a higher resolution than I was! What's the deal?
EDIT: Ok, you know what? Lock the thread, forget I mentioned it, and allow me a silent retreat to a corner. I feel like an idiot. Checking the Info for the demo revealed, magically, that it's designed for the PowerPC macs. If I had to guess, I'd say THAT is why it's running horribly.
