That 2600k is a really poor "equivalent" since the FX4xxx series is deceptively weak for a quad-core. I think saying something to the tune of i5-2xxx series or AMD FX Series would probably have been more accurate, or even listing a Phenom II X4 or better.
Not necessarily, if that system requirement is any indication, the engine for it must be optimized for parallel processing. If it is indeed threaded all to hell, the FX cpus will shine quite nicely on it. That is the one thing Bulldozer does accelerate at.
