Supreme Commander is another game the sub-$1,000 system struggles with, but as a real-time strategy game and not a twitch game, 30 frames per second average is more than enough for smooth game play. This game really appears to like more than two CPU cores, and the sub-$4,000 system’s combination of four cores and high clock speed when over clocked takes it to a new level.

Warhammer doesn’t appear to be multi-threaded at all, while very clock speed dependent. The sub-$1,000 and sub-$2,000 machines are locked in a dead heat, with the fast sub-$4,000 machine taking high honors once again.

Mmm, so everyone who's going to overclock their PC has a gaming-quality 24" LCD? No? So why didn't you focus on 1680*1050 if you're going to even bother including the sub-$1000 system in the comparison? That's the standard resolution of high-end 17" and most mainstream screens under 22" (even some cheap 22" as well)
