I beg to differ. With Chris' configs, I got about 127fps average but on Comanglia I get around 155.

    	    <description><![CDATA[Hi. 
I've been playing on my old PC (2008/2009) with an ancient ATi graphics card for a while and decided to <strong>benchmark with Fraps trying different configs</strong>.


<em>To make the results the most accurate I could get, I disabled steam's ingame overlay, closed explorer.exe and ofc made sure I had the correct launch options for each cfg.
Played the same demo for all 3 benchmarks and had the benchmark running for 5 minutes each time to get comprehensive results.</em>
<span style="text-decoration:underline">Note: I also have <em>-high</em> included in the launch options, wich despite what some people say, never caused any problem for me.</span>

Here are my specs.
<strong>CPU:</strong> AMD Athlon II X2 260 @ 3.20GHz
<strong>GPU:</strong> Sapphire Radeon HD 3650 512MB
<strong>RAM:</strong> 4GB DDR3

And here are the results!
<code>dx81 cfgs
chris maxframes: Avg: 141.106 - Min: 64 - Max: 305
chris highframes: Avg: 156.659 - Min: 61 - Max: 347
dx95 cfgs
chris dx9frames: Avg: 136.367 - Min: 65 - Max: 356
</code>

I was surprised chris' maxframes (wich I was using) gave me less of a performance boost than highframes, and was actually pretty close to the DirectX 95 config.

Did you expect this results? Post yours below !]]></description>
