AMD Bulldozer - Is it worth it? [I very much guess so..]

[Zipppy]

I've been considering an AMD Bulldozer FX-series processor for a few months now, and I ask, is it worth buying, compared to a Phenom II X6 or even an Intel? for now, I'm on a tight budget for buying PC parts, and I'm wanting something that can play Battlefield 3 and do multithreaded tasks, such as rendering video and 3d models. My main concern is that it may get disappointing figures. Should I try and save up for an Intel i5, or what people would recommend?

There was post on LFSForum of someone getting good FPS out of an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T and keeping cool on Crysis and Battlefield 3 maxed out, with a maximum of 35 degrees Celsius (with a Corsair H100), this may be because of the Hexa-core design though, yet it rarely reaches 90% usage when overclocked to 3.6 GHz while playing those games.
