This is somewhat true but a side effect of PV is that its performance degrades with higher temperatures. It is possible to use panels output as thermometers they are so consistent in this behavior.

I'm not saying they will stop working but merely they lose out in some potential.

I think you forget just how old Quake is. I remember playing it on a 486DX 66Mhz, a P2 would have been total over kill for that game.

I built it (circa 1996) on HP PA-RISC workstations, like HP-715's. There was no assembly code for those, just portable C. The frame rate wasn't great, but it played.

P2 sounds about right for Quake2

Both Quake 1 and Quake 2 ran fine on my Pentium MMX (and i guess regular Pentium since they didn't use the MMX stuff) using the software rasterizer and Quake 3 also ran fine on my Pentium 2 with a GeForce 2.

Are you thinking Quake III Rocket Arena?

*Quake III Arena

Rocket Arena is/was a mod

I sadly tried to run Quake on my 486DX 33, and it was not up to the task =(
