I think it should be E-penis vs. real penis.
better combined average in length and girth wins.
measure standard and overclocked
length = 3dmark 05 scores (250points = 1")
girth = percentage of maximum overclock (10% = 1")
:D

hummm
that put's my e-girth at 0", with a 0% overclock

hehehe
Just edited (due to thinking)
girth = percentage of maximum overclock (10% = 1")
the maxiumum overclock you can get with your current system.
for example, while not overclocked, my system will do about 15% if i do overclock, leaving me with 1.5" e-girth.

never overclocked anything seriously in my life, but i know my mobo will go up to 10% automaticallyif i enable it, and after that at least a nother 5%, which gives me a 31.5" cyber cock and a 1.5" girth. somewhat misproportioned i think.
as for a battle of the rigs, id be happy to give it a whirl. if anyone reads custompc and has their benchmarking cd from this month, give it a whirl and post ure results, ill do mine 2morrow. other than thats its just 3dmark05.

This sounds fun!!
Everyone should do and post results, then we can draw a graph or something...
I think my e-penis will be slightly lacking though...
(better look into GFX viagra and 'pipeline enhancement' pumps
)
