Can you run lightsmark with r300g?
Seeing that benchmark made my day :DQuote:

r600g is faster than r600c in pretty much everything here. It's not nearly as optimised as r300g, though, and a proper shader compiler is still not done.
Awesome, at this pace.
The 300g drivers will be 'finished' at the end of this year!
That's fantastic.
Kudos to all the developers. It was so nice to see the OSS being faster than the proprietary ones in one of the benchmarks. Hopefully, when the developers are done. This will be the case in all benchmarks.
you're probably right however the situation is different with an 4250 IGP :( strange thing is that the blob performance on this IGP is way worse than r600g. :confused:Quote:

if i remember well the 300g was supposed to be the trainig ground for later drivers right? so keeping that in mind the r600g will surely follow soon. i just wonder why the more powerful r600 cards produce unplayable framerate. if the driver architecture is the same, how can that be? now the tests have been made on amd processors. do the results apply for intel processors aswell?
besides. i hope these results will get the intel people to work on a gallium driver. why trying to avoid the the inevitable? :D
will wayland produce even higher frame rates due to simpler nature?
