As we said, we are not able to tell if AMD FX-8150 with Bulldozer µarch is more quad-core with Hyper-Threading on steroids than eight-core. Couched in moderate terms: we would incline to the first one but prefer the second one. Either way Bulldozer is very interesting microarchitecture with quite disappointing performance - at least in desktop environment on Windows platform.
Regarding the WinRAR performance: all results showing Bulldozer beating the Sandy Bridge (including ours) was merely about the missed influence of Core Parking on the performance in some specific application like WinRAR. We are still scratching our heads about forgetting this issue when we aware of it since March 2010. Well, sh*t happens (from time to time), there's probably nothing we can do about it than writing this article :-). That's why we did it, we just wanted to spread our message abroad. We hope that's not the last time we are doing it.
