The Intel DC is faster but as in most things, speed is a question of money. AMD seems to offer more bang for your buck. The speed difference is negligible. If you have the money and want to be able to brag, go with the Intel DC, otherwise, get the AMD and save yourself a good amount of money. Brand loyalty is stupid and foolish, common sense is king.
And with AMD aquiring ATI/Radeon, who knows what will come next year.

Athlon keeps cooler, and you get more Mega Flops for your money.
