As you can see
the TnT does well on slower P2 systems, but it is still a
little triangle starved, waiting for the CPU. It got a
respectable 25.2fps at 1024x768 on 3-Finger’s Crusher demo
on a 300Mhz CPU. This makes it a good choice for online
play. Note: A 12MB Voodoo2 will get in the low 30’s, high
20’s on the crusher demo on most P2’s.
