    Basically a zoetrope at that point.

    Reminds me when I first started pc gaming. I even doubled my RAM to 512mb! I found a mod that basically turned everything into basic polygons where the walls were just red planes, characters looked like minecraft, the guns looked like they were done by a brutalist architect after being verbally described to them. Ran a mean 45 fps, but you had to use something like CCleaner to clear the ram in between rounds.

      Omg! CCleaner nostalgia!

      I also had some sort Windows background process suppression software that would squeeze 2–3 more fps out for me. At the cost of occasionally bluescreening me lol
