[QUOTE="dirtydog, post: 78240"] In a PC, no, not at all. But the xbox does. You mustn't think of the xbox's spec in PC terms; it over-achieves massively compared to a PC. An xbox's performance is nearly as good as today's high-end PCs, whereas a PC with 733 Celeron/P3 Hybrid (133fsb but only 128K L2) and Geforce3 would be lame. Again, you're wrong.. sorry. A lot of games, like UT2004, are cpu limited and will give the same fps virtually whatever res you run them at, from 640x480 to 1600x1200. Also remember Halo? It runs better on the xbox than it does on a P4 3.0 with Geforce4.. even at 640x480. btw no, a 9200 128MB would not be any faster than a 9200 32MB.. surely you should know that? It may be able to run AA/AF better, or use detail textures, due to the larger memory, but faster? Nope. The 9200 (aka 9000) is a lame card whichever way you slice it. It is well beaten by a 5 year old Radeon 8500. [/QUOTE]
