Thanks, but I've inserted charts here from this article already.
Nice, but it's just a few games.
you just proved your confusing people by mixing statements

A is about not sharing resources, B is about using extra TDP to overclock/turbo higher, it can only be both if you leave the chip stock and try to play with schedulers to see the results. if you have 2 chips with the same clocks, then A will be better. but if you have 2 chips with the same TDP then B will be better. you cant say that C is either because they are opposite sides of the same coin.

and just a few games is the only games weve seen tested. so for now its 66% of games out there do notice an increase by not sharing resources IF CLOCKS ARE LEFT ALONE. the test with WoW by Toms Hardware mentioned no details about how that 10% was gained, and it looks to be based around 'B' with using higher turbo settings. but they dont tell us anything.
