Re: 5%
"You don't find 5 % substantial, but seeing a chart with a name on top, won't you get influenced by the ranking ?"
back in the old days review sites used to do loads of benchmarking of different PC motherboards ... but as more and more of the functionality became part of standardized chpsets then these turnied into pages of charts with everyone having (about) the same resutls .. and as a result some manufactures became known for increasing their bus frequency by 1-2% to try to move them to be the "first among equals" position .... there's a similar phenomenum now in graphics cars where "factory overclocked" cards up frequencies by tiny amounts but it will get them higher up the list of in all other respects identical cards
