I'd probably buy this if test was made by 3rd party, but @ the event hosted by AMD - meeh. And what drivers they used for both machines? personally im not sure if both pc's were identical other than cpu/mobo. Looks shady to me. What i know for sure from other independently made reviews is that FX8150 bottlenecks 7970 performing worse than nehalem quads.

lol yeah but dont forget that those "stupid" benchmarks actually measure performance.
