Intel or AMD
JanusChrist:
2600 Athlon XP Barton here. I've always liked AMDs.
RaZoR1394:
With the newer AMD64's AMD kicks mayor butt in almost all apps, not only games, specially with their two X2's. I currently have 2 amd64's and 2 P4's but the P4's are kinda old and I have no plans in buying an Intel furthermore.
Pentium's are hot, expensive, low performing, etc. No reason to buy one of them.
I would recommend a AMD64, preferrable San Diego, Venice or an X2 if you're interested in a new CPU.
toadlife:
Intel will be coming out with new chips that address the heat issues. They will be merging the technology from the PentiumM series.
MarathoN:
I've been using AMD chips since the K6 days, and every single one has performed great (including this Athlon XP 1800+) :)
MrX:
i think it depends on your political standing. if you are to the left, you like AMDs because you are a rebel. if you like intel, you are on the right, because you dont like to try new things and stay with the 'mainstream' like all the big box OEMs do.
