My son and I would like to stress-test the graphics
capability of an nvidia geforce2 gts (creative labs) /
abit-ka7 athlon system running windows 2000.
We would like to verify that the graphics hardware
is stable, and possibly tune its performance before
we 'sign off' on completion of the system.

The de facto diagnostic and stress-testing software
for 3d graphics acceleration appears to quake 3.
Unfortunately, I don't find the content of the software
appropriate for household use.

Could someone recommend an alternative?

Ideal for the purpose would be a game that stresses
and highlights the graphics capability of our
specific nvidia / abit / w2k system, possibly of the
simulation or (non-violent) role-playing kind.

Thanks for any suggestions.
