Simple CPU Poll

You cna post why if ya want =-D

Or, if your like a different one, which one?

I personally like AMD

AMD, but Shane will eat me alive now =(

Intel. Why do you guys all like AMD? They were leap-frogged by Intel two years ago. The way I understand it the strength of the core architecture is that it was originally much more like a P3 than a P4 (less heat and similar architecture), it also took lessons from the Pentium M (low power and less heat).

The current intel cpus are better all around than the AMD ones. The AMD X2's are under powered comapred to the core 2 cpu's from intel. The Phenom chips aren't even that amazing compared to a standard X2 from AMD. The only time I would use AMD is if I was building a dirt cheap computer just for browsing the web, word processing, and email.

If I was to go get the 9700 Phenom it would be about $220. Whereas I could get much more power for $5 less with the E8400. That's why I like intel

Sad that the phenom is slower than a X2 =\

neither... Dell =P

Intel because I have a Mac. T_T. =_=. -__-". (")'-'(").

even if you have a dell it either has AMD or Intel CPU

there are also PowerPC chips and a few others.
