I followed up Xeon_Addict's 32-thread beast with my new toy... a Dell Venue 8 Pro.

Not too bad for a little 8-in. tablet. These 4-core Bay Trail CPUs are nice for web surfing and MS Office (which is what I use it for). It's too bad that this tablet doesn't have a mini-HDMI out--I could almost use it for a light workload desktop (combined with my wedge keyboard and mouse) that's ultra portable.
I ran this HandBrake benchmark on a couple of old systems before tearing them down a while back. Here are those scores along with a few other systems I've had/have.
AMD Athlon XP 3000+ (single core, 2.17 GHz) =
8.052503 fps.
Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 (dual core, 2.33 GHz) =
36.542229 fps .
AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE (quad core, 3.4 GHz) =
109.438010 fps.
Intel Core 2 Quad 8200 (quad core, 2.33 GHz) =
74.062370 fps.
AMD FX-8320 (4 cores or 8 core--depending on how you look at it, 3.50 GHz) =
208.568497.
Intel i7-4770K (4 cores, 8 threads, 3.50 GHz) =
244.437164 fps.
Intel i7-4770K (4 cores, 4 threads--HT disabled, 3.50 GHz) =
210.112930 fps.
The Bay Trail was pretty close to the C2D E6550 in performance. I'll have to say that I was surprised that it was that close.
