My 8400 beats your 9200!

j/k

When I started the campaign, a crewman woke me up to see the captain. He did this at 3-4 fps.

They've created a beautiful game and provided graphics options that tweak everything EXCEPT your boat's interior and crew. I can count the wrinkles on my captain's forehead but can't walk 2 feet in this god-awful slide show.

I bet the game would run like a dream if I hunted merchants in a one-man row boat. At max settings, mind you.

This is the problem with the branding of graphics cards. You would expect the 9xxx to be good, but a 9200 is actually really bad, probably comparable to the 6800 GT.

The rebranding is fairly annoying. I game on a Mac Pro, and they call the gfx-card that came with it a GT-120, which in reality is a 9500 GT.

A completely useless renaming in other words but hey, it handles SH5.
