I just looked dual core 64 bit Intel's and I'm see it starting at $125. So I can tell the price is going to much greater than the AMD setup.

So, what benefit would make spending a lot more on the Intel?

 YOU wouldn't... that's the problem, they have no idea what they are talking about.  You will want a good processor for floating point calculations.  AMD has the better FP unit then Intel.  Just make sure you get the AM2+ board so you can possibly upgrade it to a 4 core later.   

Intel switches sockets like crazy, it's an upgraders nightmare...  



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.
