Huh? It doesn't really matter if the card has raw power or not if the drivers aren't any good. Surely better drivers are always a good thing? If I get a new driver upgrade that, for example (and an obvious exaggeration) increases performance by 100%, I'm not going to say "Well, they should have made their card faster in the first place".
