@ArchoNils2: I think @sellingthings is saying that the optimization of software increases the performance of the GPU, not it's raw power, and that a medium-rare graphics card running well-optimized software can outperform a medium graphics card running poorly optimized software. I don't think that's such a reach at all, considering one of the most common laments of the PCMR community is poorly optimized ports.
