    Now Nvidia spend millions to get our GPU's to do PhysX calculations, to aid in Game speed, and the 3DMark boys cry unfair?

    To add insult to injury if your PC can do Physx calculations on another card, it counts, and is considered fair....

    LOL

    We seem to be always waiting for ATI to catch up in speed or features...

    If your CPU is allowed to farm Physx calculations off to another card, don't call it cheeting if Nvidia is doing ours as a feature of the GPU.
    We don't care if the card starts with an A or N!!

    looks Vantage is for benching tomorrow's games, as long as ATI can do it too.
    As I already said, the way I understand this is that NVidia PhysX runs a CPU test on GPU, which is just wrong. Simple. It has nothing to do with it being better or worse than Ati.


    Edit: I'll note it here too, before someone comments about this. I had understood this wrong. CPU Test 2 does use Ageia PhysX too so it should also use PhysX on a GPU.
