I do not know any article from DF that praised the CPU.  If anything they have always stated its slightly speedy variant of the same chip.  In multiple articles from DF they have also stated that the CPU is usually the bottleneck in some games being able to push better performance when CPU limited.

Here's the whole hype article and according video. I'm sure you have seen it already.

Yes, I read that article, is there anything in it that is incorrect about the CPU.  In other words does it do what it says it does.  As for hyping up the X1X, I guess its perspective.  I read the article as information more than anything else.  Anyone with any ounce of hardware knowledge knows that just improving draw calls is only one aspect of what the CPU does and would not equate that with anything more than CPU enhancements, just like the increase in CPU processing speed.  

Also we have seen with a few games that are CPU limited that the X1X does have a advantage over the Pro but since its still the same CPU as in the X1, I doubt anyone thought their would be any real Oh Shit moment of discovery.
