As the author of the Phobia demo, I wouldn't call the benchmarks bogus
at all as the results posted over the various NG's do vary with
different hardware and software combinations, but consistent with
similarly specced machines.

I get very different frame rates between 1600 and 640 resolutions. If
you get the same then your processor is probably not powerful enough
to feed enough data to the video card at 640x480.
