Well, duh, if you take cpu on a mature 32nm process its going to clock better than a 45nm one.
Your statement about "rape" is still invalid tho.TDP`s are kept inline only at stock settings.Fact of the matter is phenom X6 aint bad at highly threaded work.
Getting back to core of discussion, BD is going to be build on 32nm with power gating just like sandy.So NOT expecting it to clock better than X6 is not wise.
As for the results, they can pretty much be dismissed.
And no, not because im an AMD fanboy.but if it was that horrible, there would be no point in replacing phenom II with this.
