Yeah that's exactly it. They will likely never take that all-round crown back from Intel, but specifically for gaming they may just become extremely good value for money.

My PC:
- i5 760 (4c) @ 4.2 GHz
- 2x4 GB DDR3-1600 @ 9-9-9-24, 1.50V
The AMD system:
- FX-8320 (8c) @ 4.4 GHz (this is far from its maximum, I have no doubt that it'll do 4.8-5.0 with ease, but alas it's not my own system so I can't be bothered right now )
- 2x4 GB DDR3-1600 @ 8-8-8-24, 1.35V
GPU in both cases: GTX 680 (DCU2) @ +150 core, +220 memory (1175 mV, K-Boost "on" in Precision, which means that Boost is off ). Same driver for both. Only difference is that my system runs on Windows 8 atm, instead of 7. Both x64.
Here's the important one: http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/957572/fs/953096
I'm not sure where the 13 MHz difference in GPU clock according to them comes from.
So, note the difference in physics score obviously. It can most likely get well over 9k or even hit 10k with another bump to the clockspeed. So from that perspective, it does have a lot more grunt than an i5 thanks to the core count. However, for gaming? Makes no difference - graphics tests don't differ one bit and in the combined test it actually fell behind the i5. Unless it's Brokenfield 4 until that gets patched. Running it fixed at 4.4 made quite a big difference in BF4; it gave me 1-2 more FPS, but more importantly the FPS was more stable than it was on my i5 afterwards. Game still runs like crap, but it's something
It's going to be interesting to see a CPU comparison (although I hope some site actually tests at 1080p/1440p with a reasonable GPU instead of dual fucking Titans) once they fix whatever is wrong, as it is the first game that really can use all 8 cores. That said, even my now ancient i5 760 still keeps up with it just fine, so no, 8 cores are not necessary just yet.
The other 2 tests for completeness' sake:
Cloud Gate: http://www.3dmark.com/compare/cg/862763/cg/859925
Ice Storm: http://www.3dmark.com/compare/is/969519/is/966353
Note how Ice Storm seems to somehow be CPU bound on the AMD setup, not sure what happened there. Cloud Gate on the other hand is reversed, entirely in favour of the AMD setup.

After reapplying the paste on my 3570K I have rebenched my system with a new personal record:
Fire strike ePeen length: 7574
http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/1396534?
3570K @ 4.6Ghz
7950 @ 1175/1650
I have no idea why 3DMark only shows 1024MB on the 7950, but whatever. These settings are for benchmarking only. Normally I'll run my 3570K @ 4.5Ghz and the 7950@ 1155/1650 to have perfect stability and better temps.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Might wanna find out why your graphics score is 300 lesser in the first place
(and i don't mean the total score btw, since i got i7 it's unfair) http://www.3dmark.com/fs/765644

Just put +100 on both cores and you should overtake them.

Was playing around with my GTX 780 and decided to see how far I can push it. This is with 1320mhz stable core clock. Ran firestrike, here are my results:
link: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/2874127
Not a bad result for a GTX 780 single card 
ASUS Maximus XII Formula | Core i9 10900k @ 5.2Ghz | 32GB G.Skill DDR4 4200Mhz | EVGA RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Hydro Copper | ASUS ROG PG35VQ

Don't know how sli scaling works because one gtx970 is getting up to 11k.
So 2 980's should go a little higher than 15k.
That way or another, Who needs all that powah !

From 3665 points to 9153 , I guess that's enough of a firestrike xD
(No overclock yet.. will do it when I effectively need it).
Spoiler: | |
Briefly tried other games as well (1080p of course).
Witcher 2: 90+fps, unless I enable the evil Ubersampling, in that case..~42fps because screw you technology xD
Far Cry 4: 60-80fps/Ultra;
Modded Skyrim & New Vegas w/ ENB: always above 60fps, but as always vsync is needed or the animals start flying around and the gaembrio goes crazy;
Metro LL: 70-80fps/Max/DerpX excluding the taxing SSAA;
Arma 3: 60ish fps with reasonably decent distance slider and everything on Very High, FXAA only, SP;
Dragon Ag3: 50-60fps/Ultra, but also some random stuttering, it probably hates my windows seven;
pCars: 60fps vsync'd/Max, SMAA;
Some are left, including the final Boss, the terrifying Unity monster, that will have to wait till the torrent finishes its job (again). So far I'm really really impressed though, damn.

I envy. Tho my oced 7870 (7950 levels of powah) and 2500k at 4.5 are still doing fantstic.
Still. That's almost double the performance
