Do you mean the Half Life 2 performance? Or ATi...both of which are good, I might add - together, makes some sweet gaming

I don't like benchmarks, so ewwwww, ohhhhhhhhhhh!

1. Too hard to set up.
2. They change/say something different depending on what game you play.
3. Too resource intensive.
4. There's too many of them.
5. Benchmarks cheat and don't show the real picture.

Isn't the article mainly comparing the difference between CPU's and memory? It looks like the Athlon64 reigns supreme. It's interesting seeing the difference between RAM with diffferent CAS latencies.
