The editors didn't like

  • Weak single thread performance
  • Often outperformed by Phenom II
  • Only fast in ideal scenarios
  • Only slightly faster at stock than 1100T
  • Struggles against 2500K
  • And is pricier
  • Performance is unimpressive
  • And the power draw is too high.
  • Not as fast as Thuban (1100T) in lightload apps
  • Underload powerdraw not ideal
  • Arguably still behind Intel's SB as an allround chip
  • Power consumption
  • Performances should be higher compared with competitors' CPUs and AMD's older models
  • Expensive
  • Performance left us wanting more
  • UK pricing is high
  • Putting it head to head against Core i7 2600k
  • When Core i5 2500k is overclocked it is closely matched
  • And costs less
  • 990FXA motherboards are still expensive
  • Kitguru says
  • A high performance processor
  • But the launch is hampered wit
