I keep hearing this "Intel make CPUs that wipe the floor AMDs" over and
over again, and whilst true this doesn't tell the whole story. I have
personally found, at the times I have felt the need to upgrade that AMD
processors offer the best trade off of price and performance (for me at
least).
Yes there are faster Intels but they are also *MUCH* more expensive,
sometimes by several times :(
