The AMD PileDriver architecture used on these FX series processors just can’t compete with what Intel has been releasing for more than half a decade now.

The high power consumption, the lack of a modern chipset, and the comparison to Intel CPUs in single threaded benchmarks are the main barriers to adoption.
Overclockers Club
