The short answer is the benchmark utility that we wrote using a C compiler.
The less time it takes to run on a given system, the faster the computer must be: there is no other explanation.
While there are many different benchmarks out there, our utility is aimed at determining
overall stability as well as speed. Due to its relatively long running time, any performance differences
will be emphasized rather dramatically. Furthermore, if there is even the slightest instability, the benchmark will
"catch it" by sending incorrect results in the report.txt file that gets generated. If you want to be sure your
overclocked system is stable and fast, run Ed Trice's checkers benchmark.
