Clock per Clock Comparison: 680i vs 975X

[BenchZowner]

As ideas keep flowing in my head ( lol ), I thought I should write a article about clock per clock performance of the 4 main contenders in the C2D era

Since most people here are overclockers, or should I say benchmarkers ( shows the relation to benchmark numbers, etc ) I thought I should give this part of the article a small ( non visual quality ) presentation.

Information:
I've tested the Intel 975X Chipset & the nVIDIA nFORCE 680i chipset in various benchmarks, by using the same ( exact ) configuration ( software & hardware-wise ) on both tested motherboards.
I've matched ( where applicable ) the memory timings ( and sub-timings ofcourse ) and clock frequencies of both configs. ( the same parts were used on both motherboards )

=======================
Test System
=======================
Motherboard: Asus Striker Extreme ( 680i ) & Asus P5W DH Deluxe ( 975X )

HDD: Maxtor MaXLine III 300GB

=======================
Configurations
=======================
FSB: 350MHz ( QDR-1400 )
DRAM/FSB: 1:1
RAM Mode: Linked
RAM Sync: Synchronized
RAM Timings:
HyperPath 3 - GPUex - LinkBoost: Disabled
BIOS Versions: Striker1002 - P5W1602
OS:Windows XP Service Pack 2
Drivers:Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility v8,1,1,1010 - nVIDIA nFORCE v9.53 - nVIDIA ForceWare v97.92

Edit:
The tests were run ( x times ) & averaged:
3D Mark2001SE = 2 times
3D Mark03 = 2 times
3D Mark05 = 1 time
3D Mark06 = 1 time
AquaMark 3 = 3 times
SuperPi 1M = 5 times
SuperPi 32M = 1 time
Hexus Pi-Fast = 2 times
wPrime = 2 times
