Indeed, but this raises another question: For most of these modern
cards the manufacturers do not publish the full specs, thus writing
and maintaining a driver is always a combination of guessing and
reverse
engineering. IMO the "reference" card should always be the
cheapest/best
available card where it's sure that the driver is just optimal. Can
this
be garanteed for cards other than the TT designs?
AFAIK, the specs for the TT designs have never been published either,
and
the drivers you have now are the result of guessing and reverse
engineering. I don't see why this shouldn't be repeated for more
up-to-date
designs than the old TT ones...
True - but soembody actually has to _do_ this ;-)
Apparently the interest in this isn't high enough, yet...
