Particle Fury

I notice that Particle Fury isn't used on other tech sites much for benchmarking, but it is a terrific way to judge OpenGL performance. I didn't overclock when using Particle Fury.

An average of 40.5 FPS is a very solid score in this benchmark. Interestingly enough, a GeForce 2 Ultra gets 53 FPS due to its incredible fill rate and high clock speed when running Particle Fury.

Quake 3: Arena

I ran this test at 1024X768 with graphics set to default.

Here we see that the MX card can play Quake 3 at a very respectable frame rate, but still lags quite a bit behind the GeForce 3 ti200.

Here I have overclocked the GeForce 4MX 420 to a 300 MHZ core and 200 MHZ memory.

Overclocking certainly helped narrow the gap between the two cards, but the ti200 is still up by more than 25 FPS.
