Can't help but notice that one has cleartype on, one does not, one has phone functions on, one does not.

What other elements make this an unfair test? It's inconclusive until they both are running identical roms with the exact same settings under the exact same conditions?

Still, I own a TyTN so I shan't argue much. :p

I read something about the drivers for the kaiser's graphic card werent taking full advantage of the hardware acceleration.

This might be ONE reason.

Another is simply random results. Both have similar specs aside from the RAM (which has no impact on such benchmark, since the hermes wont run low on RAM for the test anyway).

The phone services and cleartype are turned on on the higher result benchmark. I'd have assumed they would LOWER the results and not boost the results, especially considering the hermes shares the CPU with the phone services.
