It has come to our attention that the GREX consumer-version suffers from serious
performance problems when used in conjunction with Warp3D and a Voodoo 3.
The same Voodoo 3 Warp3D driver-code runs substantially faster on the Prometheus
and the Mediator which is clearly a sub-optimal situation considering the much
higher bandwidth available on the Cyberstorm PPC/GREX 4000 combo.
We can only conclude that something in the consumer-version of the GREX is
interfering with the normal operation of the driver, be it the software, be it
the hardware itself or a combination of both.
It's equally unclear if the same problem arises also on the GREX-1200.
We want to take the opportunity to strenuously deny the rumour spread by certain
dealers that we are trying to extract an additional license-fee from DCE to
correct this problem.
Time permitting, we would be most happy to correct this problem although we fear
this may well prove impossible without the cooperation of DCE.
