3DMark03 Patch 330 Released

Fri 2003-05-23 » Discuss!

Saratoga, California USA – May 23rd, 2003

3DMark®03 incorporates many ground breaking new features and technologies and sets the standard for easily and objectively measuring and comparing modern PCs’ 3D graphics performance. Recently, there have been questions and some confusion regarding 3DMark®03 results obtained with certain NVIDIA drivers.

We have now established that NVIDIA’s Detonator FX drivers contain certain detection mechanisms that cause an artificially high score when using 3DMark®03. We have just published a patch 330 for 3DMark03 that defeats the detection mechanisms in the drivers and provides correct results. [/quote:c9e35]

haha biggrin:

u = my bitch

I have an nvidia card, but I'm not one of those guys who jerks off while looking at the box it came in. As long as it works, I don't care what brand it is.

Best reply I've seen in months

Yeah I just want a great one lol.......why do things have to be so expensive mad:

Same here, ill et a 9700 pro when i get the fucking money for that expensive thing.

Wow, now thats some crazy shit. They spoofed up their drivers to show better FPS for more sales?

Yup, they know ati is ahead in the "card wars" so theyre hacking their own drivers to show better performance in a benchmark.

Seems like that's the logical answer, but I'd like to see some proof before pointing the finger you know. Yeah, they benchmarked wrong, but for what reason?

The proofs all over the place on hardware sites mainly, they done something to a clipping plane so the card didn;t have to render as much in 3d mark so it would obviously have a performance advantage.

The funny thing is, in an article I saw on slashdot today, the 9800 pro still beat it even with the tricked out drivers.

And that story is old news. I saw it last week on slashdot.com

Couldn't someone file a law suit against nvidia for false advertisement?

It might be "old" but this is really the first official comfirmation anyones given that yes indeed nvidia are cheating.

ati has been accused of something like this in the past

Accused never proved. This is the first ive ever heard of a company issueing a patch to stop a gfx card company from cheating in a benchmark.
