Are games such as COD2, BF2, FEAR and the like fully DX9 HDR with SM3 features enabled ?
What I seem to be seeing is benchmarks with massive resolutions and massive aa/af. Does this mean that no games really push the hardware ? I mean ATi and Nv seem to be having another massive round of releases of increasingly complex chips (346 million in the X1900) at seemingly accelerating rates. Are consoles a major factor here in that more money is available for PC grafix research ?
