I have been doing some research no CPU's and I can not find answer to one question. Why would you buy Intel over AMD?
If you want the best and faster performing desktop chip, yes hands down it is on Intel's side. However if you compare the performance to price ratio you mostly get AMD. For example Intel Core i7 X 980 @ 3.33GHz seems to be the best performing desktop CPU on the market and it scored 35% better than AMD Phenom II X6 1090T @ 3.2GHz, but X980 is also 300% more expensive than 1090T.
So If I want to buy best performing chip for the price AMD is the clear winner, correct? Am I overlooking something?
Thanks...
