I would agree with that. Gamer's Nexus is setting the standard on how to do benchmarks right. Jay is only marginally better at it than a random guy with a webcam and a bedroom rig.

Jay is good for the builds and side projects, yes. I don't bother watching his hardware reviews.

And yes, the variance between his Windows and Linux benchmarks seems too large.
