ATI Radeon vs nVidia 3D accelleration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



How well is radeonhd's 3D accelleration expected to work in Fedora 11?
 I did a "yum update" recently.

My box at work and my box at home are both Core 2 Quad Xeons.

My work box runs Ubuntu 8.10 and has an nVidia card - lspci says:

  nVidia Corporation Device 0658 (rev a1)

lsmod shows that it's using the "nvidia" driver.  Is that the
closed-source driver?

My box at home runs Fedora 11, with an ATI Radeon card.  I don't
recall the model, but it has 1 GB of RAM and occupies the space of two
PCI slots, with a big fan, so it should be a fancy, powerful card.

However while the nVideo card at work can run glxgears at a frame rate
of 5000 FPS, my Radeon can only do 300!

"lsmod" tells me that the DRI drivers are loaded.

Is there something I can tweak to get faster 3D, or is this the
expected performance for the current radeonhd driver?

Thanks!
