Now run Vantage without cheating Set PhysX to run on the CPU in the nV control panel.

Cheating is a strong word. Perhaps Gaul just doesn't know. Gaul, when you post scores for Vantage, never cover the lowest part of the GPU-Z gui. People look for that PhysX box to be un-checked. PhysX substantially enhances performance in Vantage. I've posted several examples here. You can plainly see the difference in my scores, with/without PhysX enabled.

Hope this helped.


EDIT:--- When I ran those benchmarks I used GPU-Z version 4.2 which did not support the GTX 460 card. Since then, I have acquired v4.4 which does provide support for the 460. I just posted the new version which is now reporting the proper information. Sorry about the inaccuracy of the original GPU-Z in the screenshots.

What about updating the GPU-Z and reposting the results?

I see nothing wrong with version 4.2. It was accepted and verified by HWBOT for team points.

I cannot see how a new version of GPU-Z could possibly make any difference in my scores, with the exception of the usual +/- about 200 points variance between runs. However, I see that that GPU-Z v4.4 has some added support, or compatibility for the GTX 460. Hmmm, that might be interesting. I'll download it, and make these runs again as soon as I have time, perhaps this weekend. It would be interesting to see if GPU-Z reports anything different in it's newer iteration.
