Petz, Quite hypocritical of Anand to allow an Intel-supplied ATI driver to be used, when he refused to use an AMD-supplied PATCH that allowed Windows Media Encoder to use SSE2 instructions. This was a couple years ago, I think I am remembering the details right. yes, he also swore never to use drivers unreleased to the public after nvidia supplied him with drivers unreleased to the public a while ago (forget which driver revision that was, I believe it was durring the geforce 3 days). The thing I find interesting about these benchmarks is the complete lack of integer based tests. I'm sure Intel hand picked the benchmarks that ran the best for them, anyone hear any rumors on the INT performance of NGA? I'm getting the feeling that AMD is going to remain quite firmly in the lead in the server space(thanks to the integrated mem controller of course).
