[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1553921, member: 110816"] if you can't rely on benchmarks, what can you rely on? A lot of the benchmarks generate the numbers they do by making the CPU run through algorithms and other number crunching exercises.. The better the CPU, the faster it can finish the tasks, the higher the score. So If you care, primarily, about the number crunching ability, then focus on those scores from the benchmarks and go with the machine with the highest score.. [/QUOTE]
