Hi, I tested 1,3 version and I've seen the following:
- Windows GUI is more responsive than 1.2
- WC3 works OK
- Heroes III works OK
- UT99 shows some artifacts and has a little different colors (more brighter)
- Vampire the Masquerade Redemption works a lot faster than before.

Good work SFFT team!!

I should have around 3000 - 3500points - 3dmark2001se

Probably V55k and V6k will not use all cores on new platform new Intel P35 and X38

@Ralf,
Try SFFT Alpha 16 and let me know. You will see your V5 PCI using both core VSA-100. In this release the SLI is working ok using a C2D systems.

@kukucs,
Don't worry for your English. Mine is not much better!
Ok, I will try AM 3.1 r11. It comes with SFFT Alpha 29. But if I am not wrong I already tried such driver with my C2D + agp2pci + V6k and it did not work well.

@kukucs,
Today I have tried AM 3.1 R-11 with not luck. My C2D system hangs up with such driver using V5 PCI.
If U want to try the 3DMark2001SE in fastest mode you must use Alpha 16-19. With the  Alpha 20 already is not possible to run it because the pc freezes. From Alpha 20-47 driver cant handle 3DMark2001SE. Alpha 48 fix it but the sli is affected and the performance is really bad even worse than V4.

If U want to play to games like NFSU or UT2003 in fastest mode or with FSAA try Alpha 20-23. From Alpha 24-47 the games hang up the system continuously (problems in the SLI). SFFT 48 fix it but performance is really bad in fastest mode.

ps. If anyone with a C2D found others SFFT rev with the SLI and FSAA ok. Let me know.

Ahhhh... and what D3D SFFT core use Amigamerlin 3.1 R1?

@kukucs,
I have tested AM 3.1 R1. It uses SFFT Alpha 15 but this release cant launch NFSU or UT2003 to 4xFSAA. SFFT Alpha 16 is the first release can handle NFSU. If U want to continue using AM 3.1 R1 U can update it copying 3dfxvs.dll and 3dfxvsm.sys from Alpha 16 and paste them to C:\...\Amigamerlin 3.1 R11\driver2k and re-install again the driver.

Yes, it could work. Times ago I tried a Athlon64 X2 6000+ with nforce 590 without problems. SFFT drivers can handle better AMD system than Intel system.

I think the problem is not in the Chipset if not in the CPU. Times ago I worked with an Intel system based on socket 478 and everything were perfect.
