There's no way it can be an accident as they know exactly how it performs when they're developing it. They could easily have reduced the performance more had they wanted to. Why they did that way, only nvidia can answer, but I suspect they just wanted to put the hurt on AMD to stick them firmly in second place and keep them there.
