The long awaited video is up, nice work Logan and friends for supplying an objective real world review of these CPU's, keep it up.
(sorry if i posted this too early, just caught the post of facebook, delete it if needs be once youve updated website)

I like how they Adressed absolutley everything everyone was saying, was really suprised they could only get the i5 to 4.5 though, must have lost the silicon lottery on that one, oh and what the hell was up with ARMA 2 ? anyone know why that happened ?
Doesn't ARMA II have 8 core support? and with CPU hungry AI in single player I would think that would make a difference......?
Expect a LPT rebuttal video soon that they will put out to make money off of views.
Great video!
I just built my 8350 yesterday so far so good, I'm waiting for my kraken to show up before overclocking
I have a friend who says his 3570k (at 4.5 ghz) and 670 combo run Far Cry 3 at 60-ish with max settings at 1080p.... Can anybody think of why there might be such a discrepancy?
i believe it varies highly by motherboard, chip batch, and other factors
at 4.6ghz with a FX-6300 i scored a higher single threaded cinebench score than a 3570K at stock but another user with a 6300 i know got 1.37 single threaded score and far lower multithreaded score at 4.8ghz
here is the validated link if anybody has any doubts

It's really weird that they got such low scores in FC3.

This guy got way better FPS while recording using a lower clocked I5.
Same also goes for intel, silicon lottery really, most i5's can at least get to 4.5 and most 8350's can get at least 4.7 make sure the mobo you buy has good Vreg and youll be set, oh and absiously get a good cooler.
true, but another thing about voltage regulators
more does not always mean better
a lot of people think that a 8+2 voltage regulator board is always better than 4+1 but this is false as it depends on quality much more than amount
Oh i know, i have a UD3H what has a 6+2+1 Design but is able to output more power and regulate it better than most 8+2+1 desgins ect...
same
i have a Biostar TA990FXE with 4+1 VRMs which is able to output more power and remain stable than most 8+2 boards
also the same board that the top 2 Bulldozer and second highest Piledriver overclocks of all time were achieved on

Sorry, just posted another thread, probably should have been in here... I'm going to NCIX after work to grab a few things... I was gonna grab an 8350 at 190 bucks (pretty cheap) to upgrade from my 8120. Was just wondering if it's worth the upgrade? Noticeable improvements?
not really
with overclocking you can still get some life out of the 8120, but i would say get the 8320 over the 8350 as you can easily overclock a 8320 to 8350 speeds or above
Read the comments he is doing something with the options to force the game to run better.
That was also a question I had... So it's exactly same chip eh? 8320 and 8350? That's the same reason I got the 8120 over the 8150. And yes I do OC, am using H80 for cooling (currently 8120 @ 4.5ghz).
Yeah. But should 8xMSAA in an outside app really give that much greater performance than in game msaa?
