This is what happens when you’re left with more options. Think about Desktop OS, as a consumer your choices are very much limited to either Windows XP/Vista or Mac. Maybe even linux for some limited geeks. But in the case of Pocket PC, you have a new custom cooked ROM coming every other day. Which one do you think is the best?

If you have gone through a list of custom cooked ROMs for Touch HD, you probably know Dutty by now. His creations are always the best, so blindly you can take his latest ROM as the best.

But a recent benchmarks on popular custom ROMs for Touch HD has been made by Daeron (xda-dev member again) suggests Topix ROM beats Dutty’ ROMs, taking first place in performance wise.

So if you want more of a customized version, choose Dutty’ latest ROM. Else if you want some raw performance boost, choose Topix ROM especially the vanilla ones.

Fact is, choosing the best ROM is a matter of preferences. Taste of yours may vary from thousand others with the same device. Hence, before choosing a custom cooked ROM, forget the positive reviews people give on the ROM and instead, test them yourself personally. Probably have each of the ROM running in your device for atleast one day to analyze which one performs better and finally choose the best one for your taste.

But I’m pretty sure by the time you find the best ROM, a new cooked ROM emerges, hence the testing continues. You get addicted. In your quest in finding the best ROM, you lose most of your time which could well spent with one perfect ROM and that is probably the original ones shipped by HTC.
