Battlefield Bad Company 2 is a good choice for this type of testing. It uses as many cores as you throw at it. Even so I consider this test as a "taken with a grain of salt" deal. The overclocked memory speed has very little effect and the results are so close that during playthrough, if an event trigger is missed or an extra reload is required, it can account for that extra frame. We are within the margin of error here.
