By your logic, there is no need for the development of Snapdragon 600. And yet Qualcomm went ahead with it. Technology in this mobile space does not stagnate.

Even the latest quad core Snapdragon 600 had to take the back seat. No idea how the Snapdragon 800 will fare though I suspect that one will end up more in tablets than smartphones.

What's wrong with Clover Trail+? Its 2C/4T CPU and new GPU does well even against the likes of quad core Snapdragons and Tegras. The only disappointment is LTE support which will only be coming much much later.
Here's another one, this time on the GPU

Running Citadel, looks to be in the region of perhaps 56fps to 58fps on average, even topping past the 60fps Vsync cap on 1080p!. Too bad, didn't show average fps at the end.
Comparisons...
Some real benchmarks here

Looks like the previously rumored Antutu benchmark leaks are real after all. For a dual core, it does manage to hold its own against quad cores like Samsung Galaxy SIII and HTC One.
Then you may want to check this review. Its one the very few comparisons that pits top CPUs against lower end CPUs. :hmm:
That Core i3 2120 should be a lot faster than your Xeon W3503, core-to-core wise (also considering the former clocks are much higher). And there's also that A8-3850 which...
For scaling, I'm looking at 8 threads on the Bulldozer versus 8 threads on the Gulftown, since we do not have 12 thread Bulldozer sample data (thus how Bulldozer scales beyond 8 threads is unknown, waiting for Interlagos on that one). Deltas are similar on a few of those tests (the ones without...
The end results do matter (that's what benchmarks measure). The thing is the scaling is very similar for both despite the throughput claims. Perhaps rather than CMT, AMD should be looking at SMT which is less complex and takes up less die area. :)
The odd one out is CLOMP.......
Bulldozer seems...
At only 2.4GHz and 2C/2T, of course it would be slower than anything higher than that. Even the W3680 with 3.33GHz and 6C/12T would certainly be much faster. You may want to check your motherboard specifications and see if it can support a higher CPU though (and possibly a BIOS update may be...
One of the "quiet" guys finally shows up. Linus (the other one, not the Linux guy) finally came around to benchmark the FX8150 against i5 2500K. >>> AMD Bulldozer FX-8150 vs Intel Core i5 2500K 8-Core Gaming Benchmarks Linus Tech Tips :)

He couldn't run Witcher 2 though...
Your 2500K is fine. :)
Just that the selection of reviews AMD highlighted in their blog is highly questionable (borders on looking rather ridiculous IMHO, as VRZone's Administrator once said "... I laugh my balls off"). :hmm:
