Why not? it takes the commands the program sends, and re-organizes and changes the order or changes some functions to better fit the card's hardware.

Sorry but a GPU can't reorganize code nor can it rewrite code.

Its not the GPU itself, but the driver, which process's the commands sent to the GPU, then reorganizes or changes them for ultimate preformance and better IQ.

Then Ace Pace tell me why my game is not reorganized. its casue it can't be nor any other game. If what you are saying is true then every game would be looking great.

It does NOT change what happens, only makes it happen in a more efficient ways, BEHIND the fucking scenes, you can't notice the differance unless the driver is badly writtin (look at XGI and S3 drivers to see what I mean).

Again, it dosn't change whats shown, only how its rendered.

Forget it Ace Pace. You seem to only a small amount about computer stuff.

here a site to check out if you want to learn more
www.sysopt.com

not saying all of what you have said is wrong just some of it.

And pray tell me what does that site have to do with our debate?

Also, about optimizations, so you seem to have missed 100% of the crazyness surrounding ATi and nVidia optimization scandals, who wouldn't exist UNLESS drivers could optimize.


Thank you.

Nah I know all about that. I was here when 3dfx was around. Like I said before drivers can't optimize code. Go to the site and learn some stuff.

Then you obviously are out of date.

Let me point to nVidia optimizations, where nVidia took optimization too far, and lost IQ as a result. How do you think they did that\fixed that, without it being a DRIVER issue?

Actully let me add this: Hey you grabasstic fuckwad waste of sperm. Refute my point or go get raped by a herd of donkeys. Better yet, get hit by a truck full of 8000 liters of pig semen. I hope you choke on a cock you useless waste of matter. One can only hope that any progeny you spawn aren't retarded cockgoblins like you. Or at the very least I hope you get a nasty papercut."
