Intel vs Amd

Fail. You should feel ashamed.

One more to the list! Boom.

I find your lack of poll disturbing.

One of my PCs has an i5 2500k, the other has an AMD FX-6300. In my opinion, they have almost the same performance (the i5 is better in every aspect, but not for much), but the FX was a lot cheaper.

Bought FX for myself because it was cheap.
Bought i5 for my gf.

Guess which one I use for gaming...

these vs topics are still 10000 better than potato memes.

want performance go with Intel, want to save money go with AMD

I hope Carrizo lives up to AMD's promises.

I'm currently using Athlon X4 860K Quad-Core (FM2+)
16GB Ram and Radeon R9 270

AMD processor were cheap, motherboard with better features were cheaper than most Intel's board.
No doubt performance is sub par since Core2Duo era.
In time comes, any processors and graphic cards will soon become obsolete in a few years.

Past of AMD CPU
Athlon 700 MHz (Slot A)
Opteron 146 > Athlon 64 X2 3800+ (939)

Intel makes higher quality processors, but AMD is much more affordable.
