I find it immensely humourous, and indicative of the times we live in, that Futuremark continues to release new versions of its benchmarking software periodically.
I'll admit my heathen beliefs; I stopped caring about how my machine stands up to other people's machines in synthetic benchmarks a few months ago.
I see synthetic benchmarks as good for stability load testing, and comparing your own hardware against your own hardware to see how big your theoretical performance gains are after doing some overclocking.
I don't really see the merit in treating overclocking like a 'competition', or promoting it as such in any way.
