I am the opposite, I have never like AMD at all and have only rolled with Intel. I have played on computers that ran AMD and I just found it to be more lag and overall just not as fast as I got from my Intel machine.

amd heats up very fast. intel is much better... for gaming purposes, intel would have to be the choice.

When selecting a processor, the first thing you'll want to consider is minimum performance. That is: how well does this process perform against the minimum requirements for the software you're going to run on it? Most processors sold at retail are going to meet the minimum requirements to use your operating system and some desktop applications, but some of the low-end processors may not be able to play your high-end games.

intel all the way
