I have an ATI Radeon LE (which is pretty much the same
card as the ATI Radeon DDR but only with 32megs of DDR
ram not 64).

--------------------------------

When I run any OpenGL game like say , RTCW or Q3 or
even something with Wine (like JD2) I get rather poor
performance.

While playing any of the OGL games the frame rates
aren't stable, approximtly once a second the game
pauses for a small amount of time and then resumes...
Even if I were to stay in the same place (i.e. not
cause the game to texture swap by looking at a wall for
example) the frame rate still drops to 0 every second
(the game pauses the FPS counter drops and then counts
back up).

This happens in any opengl prog that i've tried, it
looks like the driver is doing something at one second
intervals that causes the software to wait.

Now, the intesting part. I normally run overclocked
(this bug report was produced for NON-OVERCLOCKED
runs)... at 121MHZ FSB (with PCI divider of 3), my
computer is very stable like that, I have multi-month
uptimes with high load, however, the behaviour of this
problems differs with bus speed. If I run the BUS at
100mhz (i.e. giving PCI normal 33mhz speed) this
problem is a bit less noticebale because the "pause"
appears to be shorter (however still present and still
very noticeable). The higher the BUS speed becomes
(for example 121mhz FSB with a PCI speed of 40mhz) the
more noticeable the pauses are and more jerky the game
feels.

There were no such problems with the normal XF 4.2.0
release and an MGAG450... (at any bus speed)

If any one is interested in more feedback or has
questions of any kind I will be glad to help to the
best of my ability (my email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
