Yes, it's MY work. I am a Ph. D. student after all. Doing things like this is my profession.

LOL- well, it shows........ Nice work, but as you point out, the real bottleneck is probably the monitor. Doesn't exactly make the point moot, but in real terms, this isn't really a problem for 99% of the gaming world, is it?

I've been pointing out the monitor for some time. However that's really just a side point. This was mainly to show people exactly where the bottlenecking point REALLY is in a high end rig sans monitor. Much lower than they thought. This was to quash the stupid rumor that a 3.0GHz AMD would 'really bottleneck a GTS"... which is a load of rubbish. An overclocked GTX can only outpace a lowly 3.0Ghz Intel through 1024x756 resolution at high eye candy like anyone with a high end rig would play. ...Even less with a higher clocked CPU. With a 3.5Ghz Intel, the GTX could only keep up through ~800x600 res!
