I've seen some recent tests showing that bulldozer is quite competitive with new multithreaded friendly stuff like DX12 and Vulkan. Roughly saying... if you think of it as a rematch against the same intel products then bulldozer can win on lots of situations.

It's certainly better at multithreaded workloads than single threaded. But performance per watt is nowhere near Intel or Ryzen parts.
