They test 14 CPUs after they test the graphics cards. http://www.techspot.com/review/577-borderlands-2-performance/page6.html Creston LOL, I guess not, I cherry picked, but here is what I based it on: (It gives us their test system, all gpu's, one cpu and I never stopped at the page you supplied.). http://www.techspot.com/review/577-borderlands-2-performance/ My bad. Your screen link points out to those who think AMD is close to Intel these days. Yes these people do exist.
