Nvidia Driver Cheats? Truth or Fiction?

Hardware Analysis have a new article out called 'Nvidia driver cheats? truth or fiction?'. Check it out.
It’s a matter of what shortcuts you use where, and both ATi and Nvidia have plenty of shortcuts built into their architecture. In essence for both companies to render the frame exactly the same, the same architectures would eventually be needed. However what makes graphics accelerators interesting, and gives us something to write about, is the way in which each company uses their own technology to deviate from this path to increase performance whilst producing the same result. Both ATi and Nvidia use proprietary technology to increase performance and efficiency which basically are shortcuts that all produce the same end result; the frame rendered.

    That guy is truly clueless and his mp3 comment shows it. There's a HUGE difference between what mp3 compression does and the driver cheats Nvidia is most likely using. A person who can't hear the difference between cd audio and a 128 kbps mp3 is a) listening to pop, b) using Walmart speakers / headphhones or c) tone deaf. There's not even an article there, heck there's not even enough to count that as a column.
