AMD and Intel processors are actually both very advanced processors. I prefer AMD, but Intel is not bad by any stretch of the imagination. At the moment, Intel is doing better than AMD for performance, but to get this you will have to spend over a thousand bucks for the processor alone. Either one should suit you fine, as long as you don't plan on building the greatest system in the world.

I was not a fan of Intel's Pentium 4 processor when it came out about 2 years ago. I didn't like the longer pipeline which resulted in lower IPC each MHz could handle. Because of this the P4 had a very rocky start, the 1.5 GHz Williamette (0.18 micron, 256 L2 cache) P4 could barely out perform Intel's own Pentium III 1 GHz! Coming back to the present, now with lots of software supporting SSE2 and with the introduction of the Northwood (0.13 micron, 512KB L2 cache) Pentium 4, things are totally different. Clock for clock the P4 is still not as powerful as the Athlon but it's much closer. Also thanks to the new core's ability to clock high, Intel has retaken the performance crown away from AMD and doesn't look like they'll be losing it any time soon.

it's still debatable up to now, although amd's been the better one for speed until intel developed their new dual core processors - that's why amd's are coming down on prices right now BUT they are not lagging behind, they're coming up with a newer much faster dual cores very soon - keep an eye on it. obviously, i'd go for amd! esp if you're into gaming and digital imaging or any other multi-tasking applications with true 64-bit processor.

i'm not going to totaly disagree with that answer but i'm going to give a couple suggestions. if you do any gaming at all eg: BF2, CoD2, things like that, you will want to go amd they are better for gaming and are realativly cheaper than any of the high end intel's. But if you are doing databases and other programing things of that nature intel will probably be the way to go.

Intel, Core 2 Duo is the best right now for the money.

AMD is what i think is better because the bus speed exceeds what intel has.

everyone is going to have their own opinion on this one...personally i am an amd fan.
cnet will have some comparisons you can review to see for yourself which is faster, based on your application.
hope this helps!
