Wait, they tested 3D Mark 2001 and 3D Mark 2003...
Weren't those the exact same benchmarks NVidia was found to be cheating with by including hacks into their drivers on Windows? No wonder they found Windows to be faster in the graphics tests!
Can anyone find a real (ie, not rigged on Windows) benchmark to use?
Thanks, Scott Ritchie
Actually, the results look pretty consistent with my personal experience of getting about ~70% of Windows performance on average, although the results vary quite a bit between different applications. What I think is a bit of a shame is that they didn't test with GLSL or FBOs, although to be fair those are non-default registry settings.
Speaking of which, why do we still not have a GUI option for them in winecfg?
And, more to the point, are they nearly stable enough to be default yet?
Thanks, Scott Ritchie
