Thanks for the review.
It appears that among them FX-8350 looks the most interesting for general (Guru3D-like) usage, and FX-6300 for the more budget oriented rigs as the price is virtually the same as FX-4300.

Is there any chance you could add Borderlands 2 benchmark in the future? It's very CPU-limited.

More second rate processors by AMD. They still can't catch the aging 2500K, a quad core chip. Meh.

TBH I'd still consider the FX-8350 to be a quad core, with hardware hyperthreading. For the money it's a decent CPU.

Ahh, very nice and thank you. It appears the FX-6300 is a strong performer but that the 6100 could easily match it with a decent overclock. The 6300, while better, didn't seem to be too far ahead of its older brother in most cases.

That's because AMD is not competing with Intel in the high end market. This is a mid range cpu. And comparing it to a high end cpu is a bit silly don't you think?

That's exactly what it is. It's still a decent step up for anyone who has an older AMD cpu and is looking to upgrade.
