Is it me or are these benchmark tests from future mark just made for

nvidia
to mess around with??

I ran 2001 and 2003 with the older 44.03 then upgraded to the 45.23's.

The
2003 score went up 1200 points and the 2001 score went down 1000 points.
Has anyone else had similar experience??



What card are you using?


My card is an FX5900

Nvidia's so called "unified drivers" have a problem. They always focus on
improving performance for the latest generation of their GPU's. After a
while it's just not worth upgrading drivers for the old GPU's as these
"improvements" tend to result in worse performance for older GPU's.

I have also noticed that the UT2003 benchmark is down about 8 fps on flyby
