    It was brought to my attention that most reviews were done in 64 bit........so I revoke my comment.......Really not sure why they would choose to use a non mainstream OS however.......32 bit is still mainstream 95% of software still is to.....how many years after 64bit was introduced?

    There are alot of factors......how familiar someone is with the architecture and how well they know the board they are working with, how cool they can keep the chip ( etc are they using a stock cooler ) and how much voltage they are willing to push......or in certain cases are they pushing to much voltage.......not all chips like voltage....not all chips are equal...are they trying to crank the bejeebus out of the memory.....an unhappy IMC makes for an unhappy cpu, unhappy cpu's dont clock to well........

    I've got no strings to hold me down.
    To make me fret, or make me frown.
    I had strings but now I'm free.
    There are no strings on me
