Links in system specs

That would be a cool feature imo. You can link to the product page of the motherboard for instance, or to the CPU or whatever. Maybe 3dMark validation page too in benchmark scores.

Is it possible? Is it desirable? What do you think?

I don't think so personally. If I see something on someones system specs drop down that I am interested I just type in my Chrome address bar and google 100% of the time brings up an amazon/newegg link for it.

But a direct link will save you seconds! In this time and age seconds are important!

May, also, give spammers a new place to place spam or no-so-nice links.

I agree with Viper.

Also, I think 3DMark 11 scores and stuff really are unimportant these days, we all know Nvidia wins those benches, because Nvidia specifically built their card to do so. Making said bench irrelevant.
