Crysis 3: AMD FX CPUs dominate, INTEL left behind

No, it does not. If I build a small, slim core that does 4-5GHz and performs as good as a big, broad core with 3-4GHz, you cannot compare them.

how so, things clocked the same would compare how the architecture handles things; i guess you could also go by watt, but then things are not even close. crysis3 uses something like 16 theads in its process, and will split int and float work to only even or only odd and on separate threads, but is not using HT with intel (it seams to only be loading 1 active thread per core but it is heavy into simple int work where HT would shine.) it is very optimized for amd (something that is awesome,) but they first/only one. the 4module chip and MB are still more than the 3570k and a MB. the good that is may do is 1) intel might up the clock speed for the 1150 chips (like they should have for the IB,) and 2) this looks really good for amd when the next gen consoles come out and they are both supposed to be using the next gen amd modules.

It's not a fair comparison when you factor in oc...so, compare stock and average oc on air for better reference.
We need cheaper intel prices so I don't get why some folks complain :p

exactly, i like the competition, but people are reading to much into it. this is the 1st win for amd since the BD came out so it is not an unexpected reaction.
