Default Post RivaTuner NVstrap vs. SoftQuadro

Hi,

The latest Rivatuner lets you enable the NVstrap driver, which lets my GF2 MX to pose as a Quadro2. Does anyone know if this is a better solution than Softquadro?

I find it a lot better, give it a go, I don't see any reason to use the softquadro anymore. Nvstrap works at a far lower level..After you install it! windows detects your card properly and asks to reinstall driversbn as a Quadro

What's the point to make Geforce2 to pose as Quadro2? Does it boost up my game's performance?
