Difference: 1833 points, which makes the quadcore exactly 0,8145% faster, not even ONE whole percent. Seriously, re-run Aquamark and you'll be losing more than that due to the variance in the score.
Those were the averages of 5 runs m8.
I know it's weird, and I've tried it again and again and again, with the same results.
