Doing this I've never had an issue with quality PSUs, on the other hand, I've seen more then my share of people that either did their own DIY or had someone slap together a comp for them with a craptacular PSU that blew it's caps and took out everything, I just had to write one off last week that was a allendale Core2 Duo w/ 7600GT box with a crap PSU, it literally killed everything, even the DVD burner doesn't work. Owner was not happy to hear that nothing was salvageable.
Larabel and the like that have neither the equipment or skills to properly test a PSU are going to say any PSU that doesn't instantly explode is good.

Under windows, Failwell is about a 8% faster in average than the 3770k, whereas its power consumption is above the 10%. Which is the average performance under linux?
As many reviews are noting, Failwell has thermal issues and poor OC than 3770k; it is not a problem with the "Haswell Round Lake H87 motherboard, which isn't too overclocking friendly."
Interesting to see the old FX-8350 being competitive with the new 4700k. I would wait the recently announced FX-9000 to be about a 7% faster than the 3700k.

At least in Asus you have very cheap motherboards with PCI-e 3.0 support for intel (assuming you want to use a discrete card). The cheap Asus motherboards for AMD FX I've seen do not support PCI-e 3.0.
I think each has its advantages and disadvantages. I hope that there is always competition between AMD and Intel. It would not be good for consumers that there is much difference between the two, and that only one dominates the market.

Probably not as much as a car tires..

The common Intel HD 4600
The mobile/BGA Intel Iris Pro 5200
AMD HD 7660D with Catalyst drivers
AMD HD 7660D with Open Source drivers
It will be very good to test Wine with those GPUs and some first rate MMO like Guild_Wars_2 or Tera_online. Plus the two main Wine engines, default GLSL and WineD3D (winetricks glsl=disabled).
