AMD CPUs are different, a lot of people want to only compare it to the 3770k because amd puts it at its top of the line desktop processor so yea that's not a great tdp when soon that comparison. But yes power per core it's also better than people give credit, it may not be the best CPU, but it does its job and its good at it.
In terms of straight performance, it does a good job, overclocks fairly easily, and it's at a low price point. It costs the Same as a 3570k while being above it. All these chips from both lines have their places, and each fill the roles nicely.
