As I was just talking to someone in Best Buy this morning, they mentioned doing the Quadro hack on the Visiontek GF3 Ti200 and said it actually enabled an additional rendering pipeling in addition to enabling the other features like line anti-aliasing and such.
I knew this wouldn't really get me any sort of performance increase, but I decided to do it anyway. Then, I realized that softquadro (just search for it on google) only hacks card drivers for up to Geforce2 Ultra's.
Well, I wanted to do it anyway, so I just told windows to update my drivers, and selected Quadro DCC rather than Geforce3 Ti 200. I didn't see any performance benefit (not 1 bloody 3d mark!), but everything's worked fine. Why did this work?
Windows detects it as a Quadro DCC now. Maybe I'm not getting any performance benefit because the drivers know it's really just a GF3?
