Hey Ds PC gamer didnt do you guys  justice. They compared your digital Storm Twister extreme ($8165) To the Falcon Northwest Mach V ($7695) with the new core i7s and the DS 3DMark06 score was only 20,133/Na compared to Falcons 23252/16100. Those scores cant be right because my system with the old chip scores in the 22000 range and its only Oced to 3.8 where the twister is like 4.2 or something. I would call them and set this straight. Its on page 78 of the new January 2009 issue.

This is why you need to disregard most reviews you read cause they are full of sh*t
