Just spotted this at Extremetech.com:
It turns out, though, that the disparate 3DMark03 scores may have a different root cause: our test results seem to indicate that Nvidia is boosting its 3DMark game test scores by cutting corners in the 44.03 Detonator FX driver we used for testing.
We discussed our findings with Nvidia before we published this article, and the company's Direct3D driver team is currently investigating the problem. At press time, the company's engineers believe that the anomalies we're seeing are the result of a driver bug. Cheating again?
