and a month after Anand so PCI-E kinks obviously sorted as shown by the screen displays showing it being activated in the taiwan review ROFL! Neither "one month later" nor "it being activated" establishes it is performing as it should, mas. Too funny. Memory tests look fine too "look fine". Hmm, maybe they'll look better when all the channels are used and the latency is what it should be. Ya think? Next to testing them in the same review looks as close to apple to apples as you can get ROFL! Not even the same driver! Oh, mas, why do you even bother?

Re: Eracer, did you not read the links ? Did you read my post? Where is the comparison of Supreme Commander graphics settings in those links? Could you please tell me what the settings were for: Object/terrain/water Fidelity Shadow Fidelity Texture Detail Level Of Detail Let me know when you find those in both reviews so you can be sure it was an apples-to-apples comparison. The Kenstfield did 16801050 in 65.2 fps The Nehalem did 12801024 in 64.7 fps. And how much slower do you believe Nehalem would be at 1680x1050? Another 10-20%? Do you believe Nehalem clock-for-clock and core-for-core will perform about like a 1MB L2 Celeron or 2MB L2 Pentium on average in games?
