Here's the problem
The core 2 quad is in the 130 watt TDP range. A single FX-62 is in the 90 watt range. Now you multiply that by two and it's 180 watts for 2 sockets.

The problem with Letophoro is that he's comparing this system with a dual core system and declaring it to be a "space heater" even though it's an EXTREMELY efficient 4-way system.
