You get something wrong sir, 8150 have no more than 3.6Ghz while all core loaded, the video said that. 1100T has 3.3Ghz.

4.2 Ghz max overclock on Thuban vs 5.0+ max overclock on FX-8150

I said absolutely NOTHING about stock speeds.

5%? No its something in the 80-90% K10.5 IPC range. It means 10-20% decreased.

Are you another one of those people that looked at leaked Cinebench results and divided by 8?

due to the shared resources IPC can be measured in 2 ways, and its important to know them both. in theory SB has decresed IPC if we try to compare a core + SMT vs 2 cores, and i think people are doing it here too. if gaming is using just a few threads, then IPC might look really good, but if crunching is using all 8, it might look really bad. no point arguing over IPC right now until we get all benchmarks released.

chew* stated something about SuperPi, a single threaded program gaining a significant amount when set to more than one thread...we will see where this progresses upon release/NDA release in my opinion.
