If I were you I'd be more than a little pissed that I was being used as a puppet.

This is what credibility is all about. Fugger has earned the respect of alot of people in the overclocking community and if you think he would risk that then you are in the minority here. The great thing about technology is that it involves science so it can always be proven with data.

A graph doesn't come from a single data point ...

Interesting discussion.
I think the competition is a marketing stunt. Plain and simple. Take the results as a data point, nothing more. Very little will be proven or disproven using vendor-cherry picked components. The market will determine the winners and losers. The "mere mortals" will rule the day, by using mass-produced components... I think it's great to see the two vendors going at it - lets hope they continue to listen to and court the enthusiast community.
