QuentinX5, do you even know what IPC is? It is how many instructions a core can handle per cycle. AMD's IPCs are very, very low right now, while Intel's are rather high. To get the total peak IPC of a processor, you do not simply multiply the clock rate by the amount of cores. You must multiply the clock rate by the IPC, then multiply THAT by the number of cores. And then, you need to factor in architecture differences.

Currently, Intel not only has higher IPCs than AMD (AMD's peak IPC on most chips right now being 2-4), but (correct me if this is wrong) also does some things using less instructions.

So, no, AMD doesn't have the most processing power right now.

Even if your equation were right, they don't, because Intel has a 12-logical-core beast with a clock rate that I can't remember which is higher than a stock 8350. Maybe a tiny bit slower than a 9590, but a 9590 still has 8 cores.
in a perfect world we would all be piles of sand with no ability to form coherent bodies of body
