regarding all performance tests out there this should be much more common. I can't remember that I have seen anyone that has had that experiance
I have, and I think they are both on the same smoothness level.

I know what you guys speak of when you say if does not feel smooth. Like when you pay games it says 60fps but it still lags every half second. I guess you could call it micro-studdering. I had this problem with BOTH amd and intel systems. In the past year or two I have went thought all of those systems above trying to get one not to do it when it is overclocked. I finally figured it out with system that I just built(one in the sig). This intel "roughness" happened because my gtl multi and vtt were not properly tweaked. I have no idea how to fix it on an amd system, but if I had to guess I would say up the htt voltage.
