3DMark is much the same - 3DMark Vantage is barely nice to watch with a high-end card.

Cat 8.8, Xorg 7.2, HD3850 AGP and an Athlon [email protected] I get 12/17/21 fps @ 1280x1024.
The trouble is at 1024x768 it always hangs at scene 8 and at 1280x1024 I can only get one run. Letting it continue results in artifacts (different with vsync on/off) and really low FPS eventually SysRq able hanging.
It's not temperature - I can run the new sanctuary +hdr for ages with GPU 99% and 86 degrees and I am only at 80 for tropical.
