RoundUp - ZD 3D Winbench Scores

This is the true acid test for Matrox cards. Unlike most Graphics cards out there that have superior 3D and low quality 2D, Matrox has Superb 2D, but looses out on 3D.  After my last review on the Matrox G400MAX card, I was told by someone that it was unfair to judge Matrox cards as bad 3D performers because they are very CPU dependent, and can go faster if you just use a faster CPU. The reason is that it offloads all the Triangle work to the CPU, instead of running it in hardware like 90% of other cards do. I ran these on a Celeron @ 450Mhz, I figure its a good test machine because even though its below what some of the geeks in the world run, its still equal or faster then what most "normal" people run. 30FPS isn't that bad of a score, its fine for the low end or occasional gamer. It is more then OK for people doing CAD work. I ran 3DMAX and Lightwave 3D under it, and it was just orgasmic the speed the MAX card moved in it. VERY NICE!.
