Yeah, all it does is measure real-world directX 9 performance. :rolleyes: :p

Oh, if you only knew....

Please, try to understand that opinions can differ and don't try to convince everyone about your own opinion...

You came here pimping your site under the guise of a newcomer, if you would have came and posted saying "Come check out this review I did on my new site" that would have been an entirely different matter.

No, all he did was post a url and said "Pretty cool card". Then you proceeded to jump all over him and this discussion has gone downhill ever since....

Yeah, I DO count that as deceptive and hit whoring. When you post a link to an affiliated site you should make mention of it.

You REALLY gotta be careful defending a companies shady business practices, you might find your own standards slipping a bit... :(

There are always people who take their opinion extremely far and that's not bad in itself.

But why do they keep telling everyone?

You might try minding your own business and stop attacking anyone here who has ANY interest in nVidia products. That is what they have moderators for and last time I looked you are not one of them. This is called nV News, not ATI News last time I checked.

Uhm, I'm TALKING about nVidia here! You are the one who keeps bringing ATi into it. :rolleyes:

Please try and keep it straight, I know it's hard for you and all. :cool:

Does that AT ALL matter?

With 3DMark03 330 you should've forget about the whole cheating issue as well then...

Face it, it's not all smiles and roses, all people lie and cheat...

Well, I don't want to fight or offend anyone so this is my last post in this thread (unless something very strange happens)...

Flame on! ;)

What part of stop attacking anyone here who has ANY interest in nVidia products do you not understand?

I have it very straight but at least I don't resort to personal attacks to get my point across.

Yes, I really think it does.

When they came in ATi did a "housecleaning" and totally re-changed the way they did things, and their successes now are a result of that and why they're continuing and expanding on those qualities. nVidia just seems locked in a tail-spin the other way. :(

You have it straight, but wrong. I'll agree to disagree as long as you stop refuting everything I post. :(

The spec chart for the 5800 and ultra is all messed up, a bunch of the fields should be switched aorund

Two things:

1. Which drivers did you use? Supposedly the last 3-4 sets have had those cheats in 'em.

2. Did any of those games you used happen to be timedemos? If so, the clipping game cheat is just as effective on them unless you made custom demos. (Sorry, the grey on black is just too hard for me eyes to read on your review. :( )

Unless there is something you know which no one else knows, # 2 is pure speculation and leaning heavily towards being a fanATIc. Nvidia's been bad lately but just don't assume it's a complete conspiracy and all the benches are being cheated on.

I am only challenging your self-promotional "right" to attack any and everyone who posts anything positive or even neutral opinions about nVidia. I am quite positive that most people who post here have no interest in your vendetta against nVidia. So why not save your vitriol for other forums who would be receptive to such comments? This combativeness and general hostility is really not necessary here.

I think pgn.inertia said it best...

I am done with this thread as well....

I've been saying the same since my first post here. Stop bashing nVidia or do it somewhere else! I even bought an Ati 9800pro so I can relax a little when Ati fanboys bash nVidia from all directions.

I believe he did =/. He got into some big flame war and I guess mods gave him the boot for a while.

This thread's usefulness has obviously run it's course. :ORDER:
