Your arguement about only looking at 720p resolutions kinda negates the other arguement that kaveri = high end gaming doesnt it?
As it turns out this whole time you were wrong in assuming that kaveri could = i5 2500k. Now that the reviews are out maybe you could admit something instead of complaining about how no one listens to you and putting everyone else down for not listening to you trying to convince the world that this APU direction is the way of the future because it is soo fast that AMD wont need any other products.
In the end going bulk screwed kaveri, and GF screwed AMD.

Are you kidding? Looking at 720p if one is doing a "CPU benchmark" is irrelevant to using Kaveri to game at 1080p or another resolution.
You must call "review" to what anandtech did. I don't.
I am still waiting for the review of Kaveri, when it was out I will compare with my predictions using the same software. At this moment I am neither optimistic nor pessimistic. However, I recall that some pages ago I wrote
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/352312-28-steamroller-speculation-expert-conjecture/page-213#12380437
Taking this review as base [...] Kaveri would score ~9.5, which is at the i5-2400 level and only ~8% behind FX-6300 and i5-2500k. It looks very close to my prediction ;-)
The same site has finally measured 9.08 (i.e. 9.1) for Kaveri.

This means that Kaveri is a ~11% behind instead a 8% behind. Yes, I see that this is a giant error of about 3% in my prediction about Kaveri in this concrete benchmark. LOL
AMD has a clear direction towards APU, that you don't like it doesn't change anything. And the issue about why bulk was the correct choice explained to you plenty of times, No need to repeat again.
margins of error don't work that way. If you put richland as the baseline for your claims, your margin of error is 47%.
8.26 to a predicted 9.5 with an actual of 9.08 is a 47% marginal error, not 3, since your baseline was not 0.
Take your Juanrga.com claim of kaveri going to hit 10.3 then the margin of error is 72%.
