"Pervasive Media" This card is for Powermac, I could not test it. The Permedia2 integrates the RAM DAC and the GLINT R2 geometry processor on one chip.

Unreal 640x480x16, Textures Low, Mip Mapping Off, Detail Textures Off, Coronas Off, Voluminetric Light Off, Shiny Surfaces Off, Timedemo gives 18.1 fps, Alpha of Coronas, Lights and Water does not work. In 640x480x32 the frame rate stays identical. 640x480x32 with Texture High drops to 13.3 fps. Unreal is accelerated in modes starting from 320x200, 320x240, 512x386, 640x400, 640x480 and 800x600. In 512x386x32 the framerate reaches 22 fps which may be playable.
3DMark99Max 640x480x16 P3 800MHz, nearly constant 20 fps at the Race scene seems to show the triangle setup limitation of the card?:
