Passmark is bullshit. Theoretical benchmarks (passmark, hwcompare, etc.) are unreliable, because they give you a generalized score. Bulldozer processors only ever get marked well because they have more cores and bigger caches. Everything else might as well be fecal matter, because bulldozer is shite and you should've bought a piledriver.
Also, modern games have things to multithread, and use the GPU harder than the CPU. Expecting good dolphin performance because you get 60 frames in T:A is discouraged, as you'll get wrong answers.
(yes, I know that T:A does a lot more of it's simulation for graphics on the CPU. That's the joke)
Shonumi, I'm pooping on bulldozer. Bulldozer is more than just a step down from Phenom II; it's a BIG step down.
