Yes your performance in 16bit color will be very good. But all the newer games, including the forementioned Medal of Honour are optimized for 32bit color AND 32bit textures (putting even more strain on your setup).
That is another thing altogether. You cannot expect to run Medal Of Honour / Return To Caste Wolfenstein / ... in full 32bit color AND 32bit textures with some medium detail setting on your ATIrage128 or for example a TNT2.
And since you'll be losing out on most of the graphic details in modern games in 16bit mode ( look at the skie and smoke in RTCW ) a Geforce-x upgrade seems imminent ;-)
I know what I'm talking about cause my overclocked p3-450@558 and TNT2-125@155Mhz can't keep it up for much longer ;(

OFFTOPIC: Seasickness

[NRAdude]

I've noticed alot of who play games get "sick." When I'm in Fry's, EB's, or wherever else, I'll always meet the strange lad who got sick while playing Mech Warrior, Quake3, and whatever other 3d-worlds you can throw at them. Each and every time, I ask them if they get sick while playing a side-scrolling game like an actual Pinball machine and they'll sey, "Ya I get sick of pinball real quick, especially when it costs four quarters for three balls."

Me, on the other hand, has only been sea-sick one time and it was way back in my childhood... I was about 5 years old and was fishing with my dad about 15 miles out in the ocean; just south of the Catalina Island Channel. I blew chunks simply because I was angry at my dad, didn't want to fish, and was pouting in the cabin. So, I got sick because I didn't focus on fishing and mainly because I went into the cabin.

Now let me tell you about the ocean and a boat's cabin to keep from getting sea-sick... STAY OUT OF THE CABIN! STAY AS FAR AWAY FROM IT AS POSSIBLE! AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHEN A SWELL MOVES UNDER YOU, AND THE BOAT BEGINS ROLLING OVER IT, YELL "YEEEHAWWWWW", AND YOU WILL NOT GET SEASICK. I think it has to do with not LOOKING at one object at any one time. A person who doesn't get sea-sick and has a great time will be a little dizzy when you get back on shore. That would be a good study... compare the amount of dizzyness of a person who doesn't get seasick, to a person who always gets sea-sick. It takes a good 30 minutes for your ears to adjust on land because they no longer have to compensate for the swells rolling and and shifting the boat.

...That was the only time I ever got sea-sick and no videogame or Japanese cartoon's flashing lights ever made me sick. I can play those $5-a-pop flight simulators all day, but I started boycotting Disneyland ever since I discovered they hide porn and evil-inspired messages in their Animated movies they make for children.

You play EQ enough that you are considering buying a $300+ video card to support your habit, and you still have a wife? ;-)
