Oh sorry I figured those that cared would see the obvious correlation.

If we look at CPU's we see exactly what we'd expect from the current market.

The i5-2500k is the #1 processor used with their benchmark software, while the IB i5 is their second, this makes since these two chips are seen as the best for the money gaming cpu's on the market currently. As you go down from there you see the same set of events, the i7-2600k then the IB i7, followed by the cheapest x6 SB chip. I think we can all agree that makes perfect sense. I don't think the AMD cpu fanatics will touch that, it's about as accepted as things get.

However what's striking is that after seeing such clear uncontested cpu representation we see what has been reportedly the direct opposite by many on this forum, not only is the 670 and 680 number one and two respectively the Ti cards are 3 and 4, what's even more shocking is that cards like the 7870 or even the 7950 aren't the first AMD card on the list but their big daddy. It seems AMD did a great job marketing that card not even Nvidia can pull of a #1 presentation out of their flagship within their own respective market.

I thought that was totally unexpected and something different than the steam surveys as 3DMark would represent more of the "Enthusiast" side of things.
 
Do you go out of your way to find this stuff? I would never look for half the info you find, nor would I bother to make a thread about stupid crap like this.

Honestly, What good do you think this thread will invoke here?

You actually took the time to type this out and try to make this seem like it's not a troll thread? Lol nice try I guess.
 
I don't really need a 3dmark survey to tell me that nVidia is the popular kid in town and it doesn't do anything to my ego to hear it either
 
Don't worry I already reported this thread. You know it will become a flame war so why even start it? You have been at it all day.
