According to the Steam hardware survey, the most common resolution for PC gamers is now 1920x1080. Gamespot shouldn't show the PC version at a res that nobody uses.
The problem with lots of CPU comparisons between intel and AMD is that they compare based on clock speed. E.g. 2.6ghz intel with a 2.6ghz AMD. What they should be doing is comparing by price. Then you see that most AMDs are way better value than Intels. Why compare a Phenom II with an I7? The I7 is twice the price of a Phenom II, not to mention the face that to build an I7 pc costs way more anyway because you need DDR3 RAM and certain motherboards. I am not an AMD fanboy, I am simply stating that they are completely different. Phenom II all the way!
