Well, I would assume that running PS1.4 would give higher scores than running PS1.1. But until someone tests, there really is no clear cut evidence of that....and it is still an assumption.

I think it would especially count in gt2/gt3... due to fewer passes required to render same thing...

but should not matter for the dx9 cards... I don't think...

Why wouldn't it matter for DX9 cards? I thought that the R3xx cards showed more of a performance difference between PS1.1 and PS1.4 than the R2xx did.

k... I was not sure what you were looking @ in respect to the results...

I thought you were asking for something completely different...

What I want to investigate is whether gfFX cards use PS1.4 in GT2 and GT3, and whether there is any difference between PS1.4 and PS1.1 with those cards

5800 Ultra and 44.65 drivers...

3DMark03 (330):

GT2 + PS1.4 - 37.1 fps
GT2 + PS1.1 - 29.5 fps

GT3 + PS1.4 - 31.5 fps
GT3 + PS1.1 - 25.4 fps

Have fun!

Thank you very much for that Tertsi
