The small Phenom X3 model, the 8750, clocks at a rate of 2.10 GHz. When compared to the Athlon 64 6400+ with 3.20 GHz and 6000+ with 3.00 GHz, it simply can’t keep up for many applications.
The 6400+ is approximately 15% faster than the Phenom X3 8450 in the benchmark course. Compared to the 6000+ it is almost 9% slower. The difference in price between the small Phenom X3 and the Athlon 64 X2 6400+ is 26 euros and it costs approximately the same as the Athlon 64 X2 6000+.

And you should have emphasized the X3s encoding-power-for-cheap more. Yeah, it's good for office and media/HD, but you can happily stick a G2 4000+ into a 780G board for much the same effect at a much lower cost, owing to the chipset's unholy knack for HD-crunching
