Well if it goes for rendering, you need a 5ghz P2 to score the same as a 3,6ghz Ci7 with HT in CB10.

Or a 3,6ghz P2 to beat a stock Ci7 2,66 (scalled). In multithreaded apps ci7 is just brutal, thanx to HT.
AMD needs some serious increase in stock clocks if they what to stay competetive with Ci5 in H209.
