Nvidea used DX8 FX instead of DX9 and their drivers were optimized to do so for the benchmark....

I can't find the most recent. Basically nvidia cheated in the coding of 3dmark03 in order to give itself better results(both in 3dmark code and nvidia driver code that it uses instead when "3dmark.exe" is used, to give itself higher scores) performance is pretty damn different... soemthing like 14-18% really funny Run 3Dmark with the name 3DMurk03...or somethign else... with AF espcially you should see completely different results on NVIDIAs not just the NVidia optimizations but 3dmark had some themseleves "It appears the two companies had "detailed discussions" following FutureMark's announcement last month that its investigation into Nvidia's driver software had revealed that the graphics chip company had tailored its code to generate higher frame-rates in 3DMark 03 tests at the expense of image quality. FutureMark discovered eight instances of cheating, which improved the performance of Nvidia's Detonator FX and WHQL drivers by as much as 24.1 percent." Aquamark seems to be a tid bit ATi sided(mighta been removed, not sure). What happened to the honost benchmarks? Like Glxgears...
