You can run your game at 800X600 resolution. The game will run a bit
faster.

Have u benchmarked ur system using 3Dmark2001. I have done it and got
a score of
4080. I am going to benchmark it using 3DMark2001 SE in a few days. If
u have benchmark your system, please let me know the score especially
the framerates that u get in the games benchmark. Thanks
