[HailMary]

I agree that servers should be benchmarked as they are sold, rather than as they can be tweaked.

Does anyone know what system Ace's started with? Perhaps they are getting pre-release hardware, in which case I think tweaking is fair game, although the results are going to hold little value other than showing what is maybe possible. If this is hardware that is released and being sold now, then I agree it should be tested as is. Probably the best thing is for Ace's to wait until this platform has had a few rounds of official release before testing. I'll wait for the official review to draw my own conclusions.
