So /g/ I just got 3dmark 11, and was looking at some of the scores with similar hardware to mine, and something struck me as odd.
The highest score didn't seem to make sense to me, so I compared it to an objectively better system, while keeping the parts the same companies, and I found this.

How does something like that happen? It doesn't seem logical to me, I got a score of 5150 which is far off from the the score that user got with over seven thousand, while in the extreme test my rig gets in the top 10 for my cpu/gpu combo, with the highest one only being about 10 percent higher than mine, while in the performance the top is 30-40 percent higher (depending on which score you use as the base).
