It could have better multithreaded performance. Reviews were showing it behind slightly on single threaded loads.
No, because they use the same architecture. Any difference comes from them being reviewed at stock clock speeds. Remember that at stock the 3820 is clocked 6% higher than the 2600K.
Clock-for-clock there's nothing between them, but unfortunately you do have the drawback of the 3820 typically needing more voltage than the 2600K/2700K to achieve the same overclocked frequency.
