The TSCP benchmark further shows the FX-8150 coming in far behind Intel's Sandy Bridge processors when dealing with work that does not take advantage of all the available processing cores.

The FX-8150 did fairly well with the GraphicsMagick test profile, since this open-source image program is multi-threaded using the OpenMP library. The FX-8150 came in just in front of the Core i5 2500K and Core i7 970 CPUs for many imaging operations.
