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."

Thats because 2600k is a 4 core CPU. If you're able to utilize all 8 cores on an AMD cpu (big if), you will beat intels 4 core barely. 

But intels 6 core would beat AMD easily... Even haswell 4770k 4 core may beat FX 8350 when it comes to all core utilization. It beats the FX-8150...

AMD also has memory/read write bottlenecks compared to intel. 18 GB/s compared to close to 30 GB/s on Haswell.

Haswell-E man, Haswell-E, it's gonna be gud~ lol....
