Andre has a really good point here.
The progressive refining and polishing of the R200 driver yielded a big jump in performance, and our drivers don't fully utilize that hardware.
When you consider the features in the later Terascale gpus we're adopting, and the fact that our drivers don't utilize these gpus significantly differently than the R200s, all we are really gaining is an increase in the speed of basic operations.
So OpenGL 3.3? If the OS doesn't support that functionality, does it matter?
