I don't know what those characters on the chart mean but I think it's meant to reflect price more than performance. Remember, Intel's processors, relative to the cost to manufacturer them, are grossly over priced. No quad core should ever sell for over $200 USD today and Intel is selling them for $300-350. AMD will likely be selling low end 8c/16t chips for about $300 which is what that chart shows (7700K). I wouldn't be at all surprised if the fastest model initially goes for $400 and AMD revives the FX branding for binned chips in the future that go for $500+ down the road.
So "compete," no. Thoroughly trounce at a price you can't say no to, yes. Because Intel finally has competition again.
