What is better for folding? AMD Piledriver with 8 real cores or Intel 4 cores with 4 threads (ignoring power usage)?

On offer until end of today; AMD Piledriver FX-8 Eight Core 8350 Black Edition 4.00GHz (Socket AM3+) Processor - Retail
 
Sorry, I have been ill. No I did not get it. Need to google more, but it still looks like the intel gets better performance. They might cost more but draw less power.
