It would depend on what type of application you'll be doing.

Will stick with Intel for Encoding/Office works.
AMD for Games only.

For FTP servers, and File Servers, etc, none from the above.

Intel = Never
AMD = Everything, excluding some server applications
SUN = Anything server related

It helps if people research things before making purchases.

Single Core Intel beats the crap out of AMD in terms of audio/video related things.


However AMD single core is better than Intel for games.


When it comes to dual core, AMD tends to perform better if you go for their top line of processors.


Finally, AMD dual core is still better than Intel for gaming


All these graphs are taken from anandtech.com

AMD pwnxr0z Intel anytime.

I mean, Intel and it's processors were great until P4 came. It sucks. AMD's Athlon on the other hand, pwnz.

At least for me.

It's not the chip, it's the OS that runs on it.
I can have an eleventy-billion Ghz CPU, but if the OS is crappily coded, then it's going to run as SLOW as an 'old' Pentium 4.

I've currently got an Intel P4 2.4 Ghz, but I'm soon upgrading to an AMD Athlon 3800+ X2. Does that answer your question?
