The box should have been marked 3.46Ghz instead then should it not, different users of same cpu with same multi thread app will get different performance depending on the turbo mode.

As for AMD not supporting all core turbo, look at my posts when i had a intel Bloomfield ES and i reported odd bench results in cinebench, i hate all core turbo since then. I supported less than 4 core turbo from that time because single threaded app's worked better as a result.

Oh Nooooes....it's the "It's not fair!" complaint. Or the "Intel cheats!" complaint.

And, no, the cpu in question is marked 3.33GHz, and it runs at 3.33GHz base. Who cares how much boost it gives different people in differing situations? It's guaranteed to provide a base speed of 3.33GHz....and you get it. The performance boost is gravy.

Or do you prefer the AMD solution......downclocking cores but not turning them off and shoving whatever overvoltage the turbo'd cores need into the downclocked cores, despite them not needing anywhere near that voltage? Seems to me that AMD's solution is almost half-baked and a knee-jerk response to Intel's rather elegant solution.
