WHY 2D and not 3D?

I thin, that what Tesla guy was trying to say was, when you change resolution in PJ64, why is it only the 2D/backdrops that look less squared/better and not the polygons.
I think that this is because 2D objects can be resized, but when they are, they go all squared up (try walking up to a wall in Goldeneye), so by changing the resolution mode, you give the screen more picles, making the 2D object appear to be less resized (some how). When you resize a polygon, it doesnt go squared - I dont know why...

What i mean, is:
i run a game which has only 3d gfx. I have it 1024x768 res. and i get 60fps. i change it to 1600x1200 and i still get 60fps.
i run Rampage, which has only 2d gfx. I have it at 800x600 and i get 60fps. i change it to 1600x1200 and i get 30 fps (this is an example, happening with my old Gf2mx, my new geforce 3 is so damn fast
)
Also, i can't turn it to 640x480 since i have a 19", i can see large pixels even with FSAA on.j64:

So that's why 2d is rendered more slowly than 3d? The N64 has problems rendering 2d, as do project64. Can this be it?Tesla-Guy said:

One question. Why? ??? Why would you overclock your CPU 66 mhz? Surely it can't give you that much gain.

'Cause hey, if your CPU burns out, ya gotta buy a new one, right? And of course, you'd have to get the newest, fastest, most insanely up-to-date one while your at it, right? Sounds like a good reason to me. :colgate:
