    1. Intel is alot more expensive. AMD 2500+ runs equivilent to 2.5 but with OC capabilties.
    2. AMD currently has the chip with the biggest FSB with 1600
    3. 2500+ has the most bang for the buck according to many in these forums.

    Clocker and Rossco and few other im sure will be able to give you more in depth answers but those are the basics.

    It all comes down to money.
    AMD chips are less expensive and deliver nearly the same performance.

    I suppose that it really depends on what you do with your PC.
    Frankly, I doubt that most people utilize the full power of their computers anyway, so if you can save a few bucks on the chip ( money well directed to other areas of the machine), then why not?

    As everyone has said, it&#39;s the money. If i was rich, sure i&#39;d go with intel, but im not. AMD is like half the price to give you a processor with same performance all around.

    AMD does more processes in every clock cycle. They do like, lets say 10, at 2.2Ghz

    Intel does 6 at 3.2Ghz...The clock cycle goes a little bit faster, but doesnt send as much data each time..

    They are both good. If I was to build a new comp...yeah right..i love mine haha I would go for at least a 3200 64...for the 1mb of l2cache

    BTW, my friend has a 9800Pro..256bit version of course lol and an athlon 64 3000...his mom made a proffesional build it...and charged like 400 bux...w/e lol but hes only getting like 41000 in aquamark...no aa or af or nething is on...its wierd.

    Ghz doesnt mean anything anymore.....an Amd 2.2 Ghz will thrash most Intel 3.0Ghz+.

    For goodness sake, Dawg, that&#39;s a truck&#33;
    Why in the world would you need a truck?

    Granted, it does have the highly desirable "underdash cup holders", but sheesh.

    It&#39;s a bloody truck.
