I don't know enough if that processor is as fast/faster or slower. I would guest it's slower because it's AMD. You can't compare amd to intel processors clock for clock as they process software and...

This is not true. This CPU costs $200 and a motherboard for it about $225. You can get an i5-2500k for $170 and a good motherboard for it for $90. That's $425 vs $260. These numbers are not "about...

Yup! You can do this on the X79 platform which uses special BCLK multipliers.

Yeah, nothing can beat a $170 2500k and $50 off a $150 motherboard for a total of $270.
That 2500k is now overclocked at 4.5 GHz using a Hyper 212+, destroying a 3820 in gaming.

This processor on its own for $200 is an absolute steal as even the 2600k for $200 would be a slick deal. The problem is the LGA2011 motherboards kill the deal.
