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.
Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
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....

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.Originally Posted by zoomee

And what did you guys say? I'll give them credit for handling the issue quite well. I also think that if it takes a rival company to highlight the issue, then it probably is more negligible than past controversies (which were found by eagle eyed reviewers). As enthusiasts, we like to tweak (I am sure many of us have, in the past, tweaked our settings to improve frame rate at the cost of qualities), and so long as the options are transparent, and in our hand, then I am okay with multiple profiles (but don't wait for others to point out, please).And then something strange happened - Andy asked us what we thought.
