Just because a system has the same CPU and Graphics processors does not mean
that all processors or bus speeds are identical. It could be that the display
is more sensitive or sends less feedback to the processor thereby reducing load
and improving response time. I am not sure however if anybody indicated that
the X is performing better than 8.
Best wishes,
