Yep. I got tired of many posters on various forums just throwing the "PhII is good for gaming with a single card but i7 is much better if you plan on multiple video cards" and nobody questioning that theory.

When enough people say it and others accept it without question then pretty soon many people online will just accept it as being an indisputable fact without looking any further.

Then later if you ever attempt to tell them they are not accurate, many people will flame you for not just accepting the general consensus even though it was created by inaccurate data.
