So are you choosing out of those two, or building your own?

If those two are the same price, and you do a good amount of video editing, I vote for the intel Q8400.

erm, i do some video editing, but not as much as music editing and gaming. i also do lots of multi tasking.

and i always leave my computer ON for long periods of time for downloads.
 
Get the AMD then. The Intel will run hotter and consume more power, and you will not be utilizing the extra cores on it either. Also, it's cache-starved, so the X2 550 will perform better overall in most games IMO.
