Fake benchmarks? Anyone know this channel?

rfcokilljoy

Hi, i spend a lot of time on YT looking at comparisons between hardware. And these channels that do "vs" content mostly seem okay. 

 

But one seems to be spitting out benchmark videos that are clearly fake... and this channel seems quite large. "For Gamers" is the name of the channel. Here are some videos i believe are just fake

 

ryzen running with this speed memory? Overwatch getting average 360fps? Its capped at 300.

Ryzen at above 4000mhz memory again (theres a few more of these) and at 4.4ghz? 

 

Are these fake? Or am i going insane? Who is this company/person doing such huge amounts of highly binned benchmarks? Anyone got any info?

Honestly speaking I do not give credit to channels that won't even have a host behind them.

 

If we see nothing but stuff a single person with Premiere can do claiming to have all the latest and greatest hardware always without really disclosing test methodology or any thing "behind the cameras" (irony that there are no cameras even) to me it can all easily be faked.

Highest I've ever heard of anyone even booting into Windows was 3833 on Ryzen 2nd Gen. Gold-tier binned parts aren't likely to do 4133, unless the timings are so loose it's effectively 2133 as double speed/half latency.
