You pretty much supported Dis with that link though, i5 runs on 4 cores and at a lower clock speed yet is competing with a processor that came out at a later date, runs on more power, and can't run on more than 60C for a long time without the processor being damaged. The really sad part is if you OC the 8350 to let's say 4.8(general max) and the i5 to about 4.2-4.5, the 8350 would get destroyed.

Just research in any place... it's knew that AMD CPUs are better for multitreading than singlethreading.

The same AnandTech that he used here.

"Heavily threaded workloads obviously do well on the FX series parts, here in our 7-zip test the FX-8150 is actually faster than Intel's fastest Sandy Bridge."

Like I said, you supported Dis, he was saying that an Intel vairant 8 core would destroy the AMD version, and he's right just by looking at your data basing on logic. If you read his post again, you will know what I mean. As a matter of fact, I see plenty of hexa core xeons in action with 12 threads, those things are fucking monsters. O_Ob When Haswell-E comes out, it will be even more ridiculous, they will make 6-8 core Intels more common in desktops and running 12-16 threads! :D

 

ps: also, I'm comparing Ivy Bridge to Piledriver, your data is old by now.
