    Slightly OT-3dmark05 scores lower with rtx.100

    Hi all,
    This might be slightly off topic. I always thought the rtx.100 was a graphic accelerator and would help my gui. But I did a fresh install and the 3dmark05 score dropped over 300 points after I installed the rt drivers.(2854 to 2489) I'm sure I am one of the few gamers that this actually effects. I am surprized a bit. I will experiment with disabling it, to see if that helps. But why would the rt lower down a graphic test score? Shouldn't it help?

    The rt.x100 is not going to do any acceleration for normal graphics, it will only accelerate video stuff when using the apropriate software.

    I would not expect it to drop normal 3d performance *much* if its not being used at the time, but any extra bit of hardware/software is going to slow things down.

    Having a "gaming profile" with it disabled might help...
