AMD vs Intel: Choose the Better CPU for Optimal Performance

  • Thread starter Saint
  • Start date
In summary, both processors are terrible and not worth the money. Intel still uses the same basic instruction sets from the 80's while AMD has made some advances with 64-bit technology. However, AMD is much cheaper and still offers good performance.

I don't see the big debate. Athlon 64+ 3800 is the best you're going to get at this point and time. If you like Intel or you need it for encoding, office use, etc. then get the Intel P4-560 3.6GHz. Stop debating, and start saving money. :p

AMD opteron fx53 is the best for now(2.4GHz)
and that "technically" competes with a 3.8GHz P4

you want to see what you can do with the best componets out there go to www.go-l.com and look around

of course this is assuming price is of no consequence but they are some of the best comps possible
