piledriver - Official AMD FX4300,FX6300 and FX8350 review thread

Looking at these it manages to beat the 2600K and 3570K in Cinebench multi-threaded, does anyone have any idea if any benches will show how well this CPU would perform for folding?
 
If like me you already have an AM3+ mobo and a phenom II to sell and offset the cost, the eight core could be a worthwhile buy. Better multithreaded ability and comparable single thread to the phenom II. Multithread compute somewhere between i5/i7. More power demand than the phenom II at full load and a lot more than intel SB/IB.

I am trying to make up my mind at the moment between the 8350 and the 8320 part for cost benefit and OC ability. I tend towards the 8350 depends on price though.
