I was just talking to a microcenter salesman. Yesterday, actually. He said the single core performance isn't quite matching with intel. He also said that having all those extra cores is useless if they're not being taken advantage of. I'd saw this thread before remembering to fact-check, but, this stuff better come out soon. I need to see benchmarks. I need a much more powerful PC than what mine is currently delivering. 4790k is no where close to cutting it, and I'm not paying 1500 on a CPU...
