It's actualy a 500mhz difference for all cores. But since the GPU clock is the same, that still doesn't quite explain the difference. It's just two days left...
also from Europe btw. I'll see what i can grab from the official slides from AMD if you want.
yes it is 500Mhz difference but not at Turbo, so will depend a bit how the APU will handle load and the effect of GPU powerconsumption on the CPU turbo. only few more days.

If you look close in the end of the AMD video you can actually see that they compared the A8-3500 against 3 different Intel configs.

USB3 the i7 2620M
power the i3 2310M which is a 35W TDP, strange they took this one and not the one below, afterall the i5 will be the real competitor for A8
graphics the i5 2410M 35W TDP which is a 2.3-2.9 with HD3000 650-1200.
