Keith, The cheating is not the biggest issue here. There are inherent and definite problems with the current generation of nvidia cards that affect anti-aliased images. This is a stated fact. Even they have admitted to it. This does not have much, if any, impact on 3D previews, but definately comes into play with DirectX 9 games. Additionally, there is NO WAY that these cards can be used for hardware rendering. That is 100% absolutely performed by the computer CPU. There is NO WAY for any offloading to the graphics card. The only cards that do this cost in the multiple $1000.
