It's called guaranteed specification, yeah you may pull more out but it doesn't mean they were duping you or lying to you.

Especially considering those extra 300 shaders probably don't even work if they do exist.

( which according to AMD they don't so they've probably been laser cut)


Although I appreciate this is about semantics so no point taking it past this : ]
Didn't know they had a name for that ...

Anyway, i'm pretty sure if such a thing exists W1zzard will find it: didn't he find that instance with the ATI card that had less shaders (or whatever it had missing) a while back? I seem to recall another instance where he found nVidia using a 27-something instead of a 25-something which gave their cards an advantage as well but i really don't recall specifics.
