Me too. When Anand first reviewed the 9500 Pro sample, the results were pretty disappointing with the drivers available at the time. Once the card shipped with updated drivers the results were significantly better. Probably the best bang for buck card out today.
That said, I don't expect any major increases in performance as I believe Nvidia has pushed the FX to it's max just to get the numbers above the 9700 Pro. I guess I haven't reserved judgement have I?
I still remember when ATI had "beta" and "Unmature" drivers when the 9700Pro previews were up and it still beat the Ti4600 by 200% in some tests so the fact that Nvidia has a driver which is not tweaked is not even an excuse.
do you remember that?
I remember that.
People, the GeforceFX is already working on its limits. And what we saw now IS what we will get later. Sad but true.
Good job ATI.
Bye-bye Nvidia.
