So, depending on the usage on a 8-threads application, you can be at 3.6 GHz or 3.9 GHz.
I actually used 3.8Ghz in above post.So Turbo for 8150 is figured in.
Also I was under impression that when you have 8 FP heavy threads,like in the Multimedia benchmark from sisoft or Cinebench,there won't be any turbo engaging and chip will run at default (3.6Ghz).
In any case,the Opteron SSE/AVX results completely disprove the FX8120 score of 5.24pts in C11.5. It doesn't make sense that in one FP heavy benchmark Zambezi kicks Thuban's ass (like in sisoft one,where 8150 @ 3.6Ghz is being 67% faster than 1100T) while in other it is practically slower than same chip or barely faster (6pts for 8150 according to xsecret and Chinese leaks vs 5.91pts for 1100T).
