Any performance increase since 10.6.5?

[pirloui]

So 10.6.5 is here; and everyone know Apples OpenGL drivers suck.

I guess we hoped for some improved drivers now that steam is supposedly pressuring Apple.

 

Cinebench on 9800GT and GT240: no change whatsoever.

 

Anyone has any better?

Marucins, in the System Profiler under model identifier what is your system identified as? (MacPro3,1, MacPro4,1 ?)

 

If I run under MacPro4,1 I get a blazing 15FPS under OpenGL in Cinebench but 3,1 gives me 27.76FPS.

 

Just curious thanks!
