AMD all the way. Sure Intel's CPU's are higher performing but AMD's $/Performance is hard to beat. Plus ive been a PC gamer for long enough to remember how shitty Intel used to be and know the same things gonna happen if they take over again.


Apparently you haven't been a gamer long enough to know that back in the mid '90s, Intel was the only way to go, and the 'cheap and nasty' sector was filled by the likes of AMD and Cyrix.

I have owned 1 AMD system. An AMD 133, which worked on a 486 DX4 board. It lasted two weeks. I have not looked back since.

Maybe you should. Things tend to improve, and a single unlucky accident shouldn't be that bad. It could happen with Intel, too.


It could, and most likely, I might try AMD when that time comes, but so far, the record stands at 14 Intels (personal CPUs. Not including any work systems), and none of them faulty.
