NVidia Accused of Inflating Benchmarks

Posted by michael on from the pointing-fingers dept.

Junky191 writes "With the NVidia GeForce FX 5900 recently released, this new high-end card seems to beat out ATI's 9800 pro, yet things are not as they appear. NVidia seems to be cheating on their drivers, inflating benchmark scores by cutting corners and causing scenes to be rendered improperly. Check out the ExtremeTech test results (especially their screenshots of garbled frames)."

    Anyone remember when Intel did this a few years ago with motherboard chipsets? Programs like HDTach got insane benchamrks with their chips.
