    So my Intel core i5 750 cannot work with 64 bit, lmao. Funny that, considering I'm actually running Windows 7 HP 64 bit? How the hell do I manage to do that with an Intel CPU that you state "can't work with 64 bit"
    Honestly do a bit of research before you post such utter drivel and make yourself look like a complete fool! For your information Intel have been manafacturing 64 bit server based processors for ten years or so, unless you count the Intel i860 RISC as a true 64 bit processor (which it wasn't) that was released in 1989!

    AMD is mostly for non overclockers who want to keep up with pretty much any softwares for cheaper than what Intel offers.
    Intel on the other hand can be overclocked much further than an AMD.

    In general AMD has less cache than Intel. In the real world, if you are paranoid enough to complain about the ms delay in response time than just add some ram.
    Even with some ram added, the total will be less than the same Intel CPU specs.

    If you are planning to build your own computer, i strongly suggest you compare the price between the 2 cpus from the same category.

    Do your homework and read reviews. dont fall in the public opinion. It could be your costly mistake.

    You gotta be kidding mate.. AMD CPUs are from overclocking heaven. They were the first to introduce unlocked multipliers in CPUs that enabled overclockers to overclock without raising the bus speed at all.
    Intel on the other hand used to make CPUs that could overclock pretty well (Celeron, Core2 series etc). Not anymore though..

    Ever since Intel integrated clock generator in 6 series chipsets, you simply can not overclock your CPU more than 4 speed bins, that too with just one cpu core active. If you wanna overclock, you gotta buy somewhat expensive K series CPUs.

    For more information:

    Just for fun:
    [video=youtube;wB0JodKgZ0A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB0JodKgZ0A[/video]

    Say what?
    Intel® Core™ i7-2600 Processor
    (8M Cache, 3.40 GHz)

    Vs.

    Phenome II 965*
    (L2 cache: 2MB, L3 Cache: 6MB, Total: 8M Cache, 3.40 GHz)

    Both have same amount of Cache.

    Now here, you are spot on. People need to do their homework before making the decision.

    In my opinion each brand is good in its own way. Intel means high performance mostly on high prices; amd has more affordable merchandise but not as performant as intel.

    As far as I have understood Intel is better when it comes to one heavy task, while AMD is best at multitasking several heavy programs at once

    I think both of them are great, sometimes Intel has the best option or AMD does, it depends on the time you are looking to buy a new CPU
