Q3A leaked beta: Let's do some benchmarking!

Hi there!

I've created a demo and did some benchmarking with it. To
compare my benchmarks with eachother, please contact
me and I'll send you the demo (64KB) (+ instructions if needed).
I am very curious how well Voodoo2 performs. Ofcourse these
numbers don't mean anything concerning the playability of the
final game, since this version is very old, but I think we can get
a good picture of which 3D card is going to rock with Q3A.

My system:
*64MB
*Mendocinno at 338Mhz
*Soyo SY-6BB BX motherboard
*AGP Diamond Viper550 16MB (RIVA TNT) at 105Mhz core, 115Mhz memory
*4.5GB U-SCSI Barracuda HD

Results in FPS (with texture quality etc at maximum):
640x480 : 37.7
800x600: 32.6
960x720: 26.2
1024x768: 24.2

Later...
