What is the fastest (built-in) comparison for string-types in C#

What is the fastest built-in comparison-method for string-types in C#? I don't mind about the typographical/semantical meaning: the aim is to use the comparator in sorted lists in order to search fast in large collections. I think there are only two methods: Compare and CompareOrdinal. What's the fastest?

Additionally, is there is a faster method for those string-comparisons?
