I'll stand by my previous statement of it depending on the game. A lot of times it won't really matter; once you hit a comfortable framerate it doesn't really matter if it's 60 or 120. But to say Phenom II can get even close to Sandy or Ivy Bridge, strictly CPU performance wise, is outright nonsense.
