gabe, I wouldn't compare 2 identical systems built by the same person that were being run in a climate controlled room to each other much less two different ppl with different blocks. The simple reason is all the variables fornowagain alluded to, some of which are completely out of the realm of you or other end users ability to control (chip height or it just may be a hotter chip being just 2 of many) . We have to constantly say this to newbs when they question why their system doesn't match the performance of some other system that is nearly identical to theirs. I'm surprised someone who's been in the game as long as yourself would even go down that road.
