alright, recent talks of HT got me testing.
while I don't use much application using HT, I know 3dMark uses lots of it. so I did a test using 3dMark:
here are the darnest thing I got:
my set up
CPU 4.8Ghz
GTX 670 SLI
with HT off:
physics score lower. (-300)
graphics score higher. (+1000)
total score:: 25802 (avg of 3 rounds)
with HT on:
physics score higher.
graphics score lower. (????????)
total score:: 25765.3 (avg of 3 rounds)
Overall score with HT is higher, but nearly ignorable.
however, how come my Graphics score is 'consistently higher' with HT off? I thought I must be alone, or I did some mistake, so I googled it, and guess what, I am in fact not alone, I found another post from EVGA forums of a person seeing the same strange result on his GTX 690...

So question here is.. does anyone know why? OS issues?
or does both cases above escape some logical loopholes?
