Intel Pentium K Anniversary G3258 - How good is it?

I've got one of these chips in my office pc paired with a cheap H81 mobo plus a Scythe Yasya cooler I had laying around.

It stinks at overclock though.. requiring 1.43v just to run stable at 4.3ghz, 4.4 at 1.5v produces random blue screen. still more than enough for office applications though, especially with a ssd in the system.
 
ALX Andy put up a post showing the difference between, this, i5 and an i7. It held itself well until the multi-threaded games started to use the cores but it wasn't slow by any means. This was also paired with a Titan X.

I don't have time to find the post but yeah.
