I've always used amd myself i just wondered what the forum generally thought was better overall in every aspect like gameing??? Cheers Dave :good:
hehe the good ole AMD v Intel war. I think you can tell by my avatar which I prefer. I like AMD because they sound better than Intel. I like the letter A because its the first letter of the akphabet and my name has 3 of them. They also make CPU's with better names (apart from the Sempron). Athlon, Duron, Atlhon XP, Athlon64, Opteron, Athlon64 FX etc. Their K generation naming is also pretty ok. Oh yea and the whole better gamig performance thing and also use AMD at home which makes me biased.
For a buget gaming rig you can't do any better than a cheaper AMD64. Amd is generally cheaper in most respects. I've heard they overclock well too as you can unlock the multiplier. I don't think Intel chips will let you do this but I could be wrong.
