What kind of FPS are people getting...I'm seeing under 30, tops at 30...?

I didn't see a frame rate counter... what it in the options?
It was pretty smooth in Firefox for me

Once Citadel loads look at the top center, there's a leather pouch looking thing, click on it and you get a choice of a guided tour or a benchie.You can see it in my picture just above you post...I edited it just for you! Enjoy! ":O}

Thats funny, I saw that button but never clicked it. I was too consumed by the beautiful graphics

Soooo..... How did you bench! I want to know as I'm wondering how Internet speeds are going to affect the FPS...

This is on Firefox on my Win7 box, which has a bottom of the line GeForce 310 graphics card...

Oh how the mighty have been brought low! LOL

What the hell happen to me on the way to benchmarking greatness!!??

(Please don't say Linux...just don't! ":O}

I'm getting strange results...I'm thinking that it doesn't bench all that well where Nvidia "Adaptive" tech in involved.

Tweak your Nvidia so everything is "Application controlled"
Otherwise, I have no idea... my card is several hundred dollar clocked down from yours

I tried it, it was already app controlled, so I tried other settings...no difference....

One thing that came to mind - are you using the standard firefox that came with your distro, or are you using a nightly build? The nightly builds are less stable, but about twice as fast for Epic Citadel!

They can be found at http://nightly.mozilla.org/

Alas, standard issue from Mint 14. I've tried it full screen and reduced, no diff.

Then you are saying it runs great no matter what?

I'm saying it runs 30% slower than the garbage you and Aedan call video cards... which makes me feel bad...and maybe just a little spiteful.":O}

What resolution are you running daniel? I'm slower than them also, but I'm also running 1920x1200, as opposed to 1600x1080. I was getting about 17 FPS on my nVidia Quadro 2800M, which is basically an nv10, I believe.

Edit: it's basically a slightly faster G92/9800GT

Quadro? What are you using that for?
I've read about Quadro cards being optimized for 3D modeling and CAD development

That's what I've got in my Dell Precision Laptop (M6500).

Primarily, I use it for the support of high-res displays (1920x1200 x 2 displays). Being a programmer, I need screen real-estate.

Laptop? How large is your laptop screen? Sounds like you are using it for external monitors.
I bet you can't wait for Thunderbolt and daisy-chaining!

17". Not really a laptop, more of a 'portable desktop'. It's actually a DTR. 16 GB RAM, 2x1TB drives, 2 GHz quad-core, about 2 hours of battery life. Bear in mind I bought this thing in 2010.
