I just tried this, just to see what the scores would be like, with the GeForce3 I disabled Pure Hardware T&L in the Options in 3DMark2001 and set it to D3D Software, to basically see what the scores would be like not relying on the GF3's T&L unit. Well all the tests were slower as I expected, EXCEPT the Nature Test!!!!! I got 10fps FASTER, usually it hovers around 20-22 fps, but It got all the way up to 34 fps with D3D Software instead of using the cards T&L unit! Just an interesting thing I found, you may already know about it, but it was news to me. So it looks like this is the FIRST sign we've seen of the hardware T&L unit ACTUALLY holding a benchmark back! In this case looks like the CPU and it's Instruction Set is better then the T&L unit, for that nature scene at least. I wonder if this will be the same of all future games that use the same features as that nature demo does. Go ahead and try it out on your system if you want, I'm curious if it's the same for everyone.
En het is waar!!!
de beeldkwaliteit is precies hetzelfde het loopt alleen harder!
Vreemd he? Is dit bij jullie ook zo?

, jullie vergeten dat de Pixel en Vertex shaders op de GF3 nog steeds hard aan het werk zijn .. T&L (wat niet hetzelfde is) kan dus blijkbaar wel beter door een snelle CPU gedaan worden in deze situatie.
