Nvidia cheats on 3DMark with 177.39 drivers

NVIDIA IS VOILATING Futuremark rules with the latest PhysX drivers, and doing it in the usual sleazy way. The rules are simple, violating them isn't a trick, and doing so in order to pump up your numbers is the height of unethical behavior.

i hope this is not true

hahaha bro, I just also doubted kay u know mga KANO rumors 2 rumors pun-an mas grabe pana nato.
For me tungod sa competitions mao nay gi sulti did2 I heard that one a while pero wala manko paki-alam kay pareho mana ang AMD_ATI ug NVIDIA maau nga Chipmaker than any graphic chip maker.

Anyways, we dont know the truth coz wala ta did2 to proved w/c one of them is lying. But I believe the
truth will reveal.

check your source and you will find out how credible they are... isipisip... hehehehe...

i don't know if this is a case of cheating... here's another source for it... you all will be judge for it...

Nvidia Smokes 3DMark Thanks to PhysX - Tom's Hardware

physx works. I've tested it.

UT3 Physx maps runs around 20 fps without hardware accel. With GPU PhysX it reaches to 60fps. Its not just a benchmark.

Actually you also need the Nvidia PhysX driver to utilize this.

Actually GPUs can even do the work of processors. And as what NVidia claims its even faster than Intel CPUs. It all depends on the drivers and applications if they are optimized for Physix.

As NVidia has managed to take advantage of this GPU taking over CPU functions quite impressively.

Well NVidia's Physix is more of a marketing ploy. We know ATI has the Havok Physics engine in their pockets.
