Is it realistic that "Piledriver" in FX8350 really scores so high at "just" 4.8Ghz? Even at 5Ghz the result looks out of place to me. If it's 4.82Ghz like in the screenshot and the score was really 9.06pts than FX8350 at 5.5Ghz would score : 9.06x5.5/4.82=10.33pts ... Kind of unreal. This implies : 10.3/9=1.14 or around 14% "IPC" difference in Cinebench MT test. I'm not saying it's impossible but even Trinity doesn't score so high and it has the real PD core inside (not this tweaked Orochi core). Very strange results.
Maybe AMD scored 9pts at 5.2+Ghz but it was unstable so they repeated the test at more stable 4.8Ghz when the screenshot was taken. Notice the progression of the scores which is in line with continuous CPU clock scaling (like they OC bit by bit and reached highest score of 9pts at some point which may be 4.8Ghz but is quite unlikely IMO).
