Puts "Measurement Service Client v.3.4" in the C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files folder. I just deleted it and scanned...nothing suspicious.

Not at 3.5 GHz. Now if their running pure 64-bit (OS,drivers and apps) than hell yeah. I'd take what I'm running now over their Aurora Extreme anyday. :D

LLLLLLLOL

I just maxed out my overclock to 3.8ghz no where near stable and it still says that the Aurora Extreme is 15 percent faster!

100% pure bull****.

Cant believe futuremark would go do this.... Wonder how much they got paid to change the code...
