Well, it's not a cheat. GPU/VPU is like a CPU in regards to applying optimisations.

A graphics benchmark is supposed to be a definitive indicator of graphics card performance.  

The ideal benchmark should be composing of the leading 3D engines e.g.
UT, UT Warfare Engine, UT2003, DOOM 3, QuakeII, QuakeIII, Westwood Studios (e.g. C&C General), Aqua Mark, Relic (e.g. Homeworld), and ‘etc’ (i.e. Top 10 3D game engines).

FutureMark’s 3D engine is not as popular as the other 3D engines in the market thus throwing FutureMark’s claims of “gamers benchmark” into doubt…
