So does this mean benchmarks need to be redone to get a like for like comparison, or did Hexus disable AMDs override in their testing?
While it shouldn't have to come down tot his, I wish one of the many tech outlets around the web would just do a benchmark at the various settings and post up the findings.
lol - I don't care wot anyone says - I can tell the difference between running a game on ati v's nvidia. :)
ATI is better quality - physically noticeable on default settings of both types of card.
Now ATI optimise they're drivers and pay attention to performance, someone calls foul - let me guess who - nvidia - who've been known for doing it for years, lol....:clapping:
I think their would be quite a few people who disagree with the statement of ATI having optimised drivers...
The first widely reported 'cheating / optimisation' I remember, was the Quack3.exe incident. There is no denying that one, there were plenty of side to side screen shots. It may not justify nVidia's subsequent 'cheat / optimisation', but let's not be blind to either company's history and mistakes.Quote:
