I think people are being slightly sensitive. His conclusions in the review seem to be bang on.

1.) Can overclock well compared to last generation Phenoms

3.) Many improvements over last generation Phenoms in general.

4.) Good as a drop-in upgrade for existing AM2+ users.

5.) Core2Quad still likely a better buy if you're starting from the ground up.

6.) Slower than Core2Quad and i7.



I think most people are upset by his statement: "Phenom II is a loser." Maybe that was a little extreme.
