Chatlog with Nvidia officials

[lazerin]

In case you guys didn't know Bjorn3d had a chat with two guys from Nvidia. They covered topic such as the half life 2 issue and "Why do NVIDIA optimise benchmarks".

Full chat log available here (http://www.bjorn3d.com/_preview.php?articleID=313)

im always a bit suspect about logs as these are obviously only text and can be created or edited to suit. Im not accusing anyone of wrong doing, just keeping an open mind on the matter :D

Very interesting though I would have liked to have seen more questions asked regarding what they are doing regarding Linux drivers

01:51] [SwedBear] Do you have any comment as to the claim at the Inquirer that PS 2.0 support is broken in Nvidia drivers? (http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=10602)
[01:51] [Kardon] How often do you guys do these community Q&A sessions?
[01:52] [NV_Derek] We do not comment on anything that gets posted on the Inquirer , but I will tell you that this is not true
[01:52] [NV_Derek] done
[01:52] How/Why the dawn demo works better on radeon 9700pro cards.... have newer seen a comment on that?
[01:53] [nv_ujesh] that's a good question you should ask ATI. From our standpoint we are constantly improving the performance of our drivers


LMAO!!

[01:52] [NV_Derek] Oh yeah PS 2.0 is way broken that wont be fixed till NV60 I think, I mean the FX cards are really crappy I cant even believe people buy them, but hey thats what marketing is for, even if our cards suck... marketing can make people think they are the best.
[01:52] How/Why the dawn demo works better on radeon 9700pro cards.... have newer seen a comment on that?
[01:53] [nv_ujesh] Good question, its because ATI pwnz us bigtime right now. We will have to look into some cheats/hacks so that are cards performance can beat ATI's in dawn

Like UnseenMenace said... its easy to change them or just make them up. I did so because its funny, but it proves a point.

Well, there were people in the r00m, they jsut couldnt chat so just ask them if the log is accurate. Someone else prob has it saved anyways....


I dont think they'd risk changing a log when they know there were people watching the chat live.
