"Mixed Mode for NVIDIA cards
Facing the low performance results of the NVIDIA products, Valve decided to develop a so called "Mixed Mode" code path for NV3x cards. In this code path the floating point precision is reduced to 16-bit instead of 32-bit wherever it was possible without reducing image quality. Valve stated that the development of that special code path took 5 times the development time of the standard DX9 code path. Special optimizations for ATI cards were not nescesarry. "
Quer dizer então que a 9600 Pro é melhor que a 5900 Ultra ?
"We colored the scores with the NVIDIA drivers v45.23 and v51.75 because they do not render the correct image (see quality comparison). The AquaMark 3 Trisore uses maximal detail settings in 1024x768-32 without FSAA and with 4x anisotropic filtering. "

"After discussions with 3DMark 2003, the filtering quality in UT2003 and the allegations made by Valve last week, NVIDIA is not keen on initiating a discussion on driver optimizations--which count for a lot in terms of image quality. "

NVIDIA v44.03: Renders a correct image. Faultless anisotropic filtering;
v45.23: Deterioration of quality. Light on terrain is not displayed. Light on objects is not displayed (sometimes). Shadows are not displayed;
NVIDIA v51.75: Deterioration of quality. Light on objects is not displayed. Very low anisotropic filtering quality.
