Some interesting facts

Lemme compare 3 systems that either I or friends own and their CS:S FPS

1.
Nvidia 6800 gt
Intel 630 3.0
1 GB RAM
FPS: 70

2.
Nvidia 6800
Intel 650 3.2 OC to 3.6 via Water
2 GB RAM
FPS: 80

3.
Nvida ti 4400
Intel 2.6
1 GB ram
FPS: 80 // OK NOW SERIOUSLY What the...?

4.
Ati 9800 pro
Amd 2.4
1 GB Ram
FPS: 157 //This is where I decided something fishy is going on with the programming


Would anyone agree that Half Life: 2/ Cs:S has skewwed Direct X 9 programming?
Note: Ti4400 runs in DX8

Those tests have a lot to do with what the graphic settings are. They don't mention those in those tests, so I'd automatically consider them suspicious.

Nah they dont really they work just as well on either, just looking at that info that data is fundamnetally flawed in order for an accurate comparison the computers would all have to be equal apart from gfx card.
