Im an AMD user, and would never change!!
Here is a good article showing AMD vs Intel Northwood

Basically showing that an AMD clocked at 1.67ghz, is on par with a Pentium clocked at 2.2ghz (thats 530mhz faster)

All I'm going to say Cucumber is never say never. You never know what Intel has up their sleeve. Yes AMD is dominating the performance market now, but who knows what will happen in the next few years...

I'm an AMD man myself, so I'm pulling for the underdogs too

INTEL vs AMD

AMD or INTEL?? Intel won the race to the 2ghz mark, but AMD's 1.8 was beating it in cetain aspects of performance. But, what most people don't realise is that INTEL processors have faster L1 cache which runs at the core speed of the processor, whereas AMD's does not. This is why INTEL is the superior processor. Anybody agree/disagree?

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed.

i always like AMD over Intel.
but right now, Intel 1.6G is the best choice over AMD

AMD right now is at the end of 0.18, very hot and can't OC much
while Intel is at it's 0.13, cool and very OC-able.

anyways, AMD rocks!
