Windows XP 3DMark03 has new patch!

[1nteger]

For all those, like me, who were annoyed to see their nVidia vids getting pathetic 3DMark03 scores compared with ATI cards, then this should be good news...

Today, Futuremark have released a patch to enable 3DMark03 to correctly benchmark nVidia cards, and not at the setting that they default to when detecting the benchmark software...a setting that makes them seem pretty awful compared to ATI.

You can download the patch from the link below...it's just under 5Mb...

No real difference: ...just impacts on certain systems running some sort of cheat or sumthin...sod it!

No, apparently all Detonator drivers had this cheat in them.

Moved to Software General. Even though this concerns video cards in general, I think it's more about the software than the video cards themselves.
