Meh all this is bullshit. You really think it'll stop anything? Nothing more than a bunch of crying in my opinion. The ONLY ES cpu's out right now that do what retail can't is PHII. RETAIL i7's are owning the benches.

Here's the deal. People should focus more on separating cooling methods than banning results. You think that intel or AMD can change the cpuid string to NOT say ES? Still a cherry, right? Then how can you tell if they bought it or not? Same thing with video cards. How many of the top ten spots for 3d benches have bought their own cards? What about their ram? I mean this shit cracks me up. People think just because they can see the ES in cpuz, thats the only hardware people are benching that hey don't own or has been hand selected.

Sorry guys, but even though I hate competing agaisnt sponsered overclockers, you can't stop this. There is too much money at stake for hte manufacturer
