    Oh, FX beats a 4 core Intel CPU(2500) in MT, lets use it for those benches
    Oh, there is one game which uses some of those 8 cores, lets use it, and also use a competing product which only has 4 cores. Why not use 8 thread 2600K there?

    IF those slides are true and not faked and they will be used to present FX line up during the launch I feel sorry for the person(s) who created those as this is a disgrace.
    At least have the balls to come out and say, that yeah, our new CPU will be great in certain scenarios and worse in others against competition, but don't treat us like a complete idiots.
    I mean am I or anyone else running 2500K, 2600K and 980X in one system and just flipping the switch and using those CPUs scenarios where they do worst?
    We know that 980X market is in hundreds and whoever bought them are either folding or doing some workstationy stuff, NOT gaming.
    We know that 2600K in most cases is better for gaming and is also 3-4 times less expensive than 980x, thus people buy this for games or some MT stuff. Also we know that 2500 is cheapest of them all and a lot of people buy those NOT for some MT, but mainly for games.
    So IF those slides are correct, they are a pathetic way to introduce your product. Otherwise, please continue
