Makes perfect sense getting that dual-core over an AMD quad...if you can get the intel, get the intel....Huge cache on that thing

Would only notice a quad's advantages in certain things, will notice a dual-core in Everything

 

Well, now that I look at them again, that particular phenom is nice, I'd just reccomend Intel over AMD if you've got the money for it...They really are worth the money

The CPU I linked to has more cache than the Core 2 Duo he's thinking of getting...

But either way, if you're spending less than 200$ on your CPU, there's really no sense in buying Intel.  You'll get a much better product for your money with AMD.
