    I can and will if you like... that will take sometime because it means switching monitors again. The max I can go is 1900x1200

    If it makes you happier --- I will actually go buy a 4870X2 just to satisfy your curitiosity.

    Next, I am not interesting comparing GPUs, I am interested in the computational questions surround your premise, why it is wrong, and grudgingly stepping you through the observations.

    Thirdly, I would show you everything. Integrity in the data is paramount. Without it, there is no truth. The reason for the question as I put it is for the very reason you ask your question ... hence the reason the post is long and filled with such dirty detail, without that there is no chance of reproducibility. I provide all the exacting details that the test can be reproduced if needed. You can repeat the test yourself, if you have the inclination and resources (i.e. willing to spend the money to regenerate the configuration ).

    Finally, in the hands of a clever experimentalist, there is much more data to be collected to ensure all the basic concepts are thrown out.... so the question I ask, using the two games we have used here, is there a way I can for the FSB to be the problem?

    Once we finish here, then I will provide you with the explanation that will make all this make sense ... even most of the weird observations that started this whole thing. Your tone has turned more respective, you will find that I will become more congeal. If you can relax your mind and open it up to explore the subject, it can be both a learning experience -- and fun, which is why I am so passionate about my hobby.

    One hundred years from now It won't matter
    What kind of car I drove What kind of house I lived in
    How much money I had in the bank Nor what my cloths looked like.... But The world may be a little better Because, I was important In the life of a child.
