Yeah it's only half a gigahertz ahead of intels. Poor show AMD!

It's a horrible show. Why turbo 100 mhz?

to keep it within the TDP i suspect,but at 4.2Ghz stock it will be good competition for the 2500K?
it might beat the 2500K in reviews due to its high clock?

Why would anyone pick out the 0.1 GHz turbo for fault before praising the high 4.2 GHz base clock?
