Is NVidia Hardware actually faster?

either way...it doesnt really matter...the GT is STILL doing better than the x800pro regardless of whether its hardware or software.....all this means is that in the future things MAY be differnet...but i doubt it...
 
it doesn't add up, first of shaders are done on the gpu side, has nothing to do with cpu cycles. Now why would that effect time demos where CPU's aren't stressed anyways?

Plus the fact the performance difference can be seen on other Ogl based games too, not just ones made on Q3, and Doom3. And if they were doing shader replacements of this kind why not do it everywhere in Dx games too? It would really benefit this much I don't see why they wouldn't have.
 
Nvidia has always optimized their drivers for the 'unique' architecture of the cards they produce. And so does ATI, to a lesser extent.
