I think the real joke here is the 102 people, as of this post, who found the user review useful..makes me laugh.

The old 4 cores at 3ghz = 12ghz is a bit of a classic i once saw on such an ad.:D

To be fair, that's the problem with all the multicore stuff, to the uneducated that actually makes perfect sense, check it can be a pain trying to explain the stuff to the non tech savvy relatives!
 
This is an extreme example, but it makes me wonder, how many reviews out there for all sorts of products might be fakes. As in someone's job is to spread good word about their brand/model around the interweb.

Well, on this forums when the 7970 launched, people were swearing blind that they were maxing Crysis 2 at full settings 60 FPS.

Funnily enough my experience was no where near that.

I tend to think people lie :p
