Obivously, Sampras.
He played a complete game and dominated much better competition.
He played againt the likes of Agassi, Courier, Becker, Ivanesevic, Rafter, Edberg, and Hewitt in Grand Slam Finals.
Federer has only played against Nadal - and maybe Agassi but he was past his prime.

If they played 10 times, Federer would win 9 of those matches.
Historically, Sampras won all of his matches in tiebreakers or 6-4. (Meaning, all he had was his serve).
Federer on the other hand wins 6-0, 6-1, 6-2.

Without a doubt, Federer. Federer is more versatile than Sampras. He is comfortable on all surfaces including clay.

Federer won their only meeting, at Wimbledon, no less, ending The kingdom in grass. Pete had chinks in the armour that had to cover, like a good but not great backhand. roger has no weakness.
Andre Agassi said last year after the US OPEN that Roger has been 'The best he have played with'. I presume that includes obviously and by far Sampras with whom he played like 35 matches in his career.
