What do you plan to do on your computer?
The only time that I would suggest getting a Intel processor is one running a server or two programming.
AMD Processors are cheaper in price and have wonderful record with working with games, editing pictures and video.
With the two computers above I would say you are buying a home computer and if that is the case go with the AMD it is more powerful (more RAM and states that it has a good video card, mother board) and and will last you longer before it needs to be replaced.

That's a tough one, I probably would have said the AMD but articles comparing new dual cores (amd vs intel) are showing Intel beating every time. Plus it runs a lot cooler. For that reason, I'd say the Intel. You can always add on more memory, hard drive, etc.

I would get the AMD Computer. AMD is better for games also the AMD has double the memory of the Intel one and the hard drive too.

AMD. That system has more memory and a bigger HDD. Plus AMD processors are just as good as Intel.

I definitely prefer AMD over Intel...it's all I have used for a long time and love them. Plus, it's a better computer anyway.

AMD is good but it has heating problems!!so make sure you ask the vendor to add 2 extra fans in the system!!! or keep it always in an air conditioned place!!2 of my friends have literally burnt up their cabinets!!!

Depends on what you want out of your PC and the $$$ your willing to spend. In general, I'd say the AMD for home use. Bigger HDD, more memory.

Both look like great systems. I personally am partial to AMD.
However, I wouldn't go 64 bit yet...you can expect to be somewhat limited by hardware and software that is not yet 64 bit compatible.
