If this is a competition to be wrong can I ask that you compare your post to that which is acceptable under policy, and see how far away you are there. | |

AMD can handle more insturctions per cycle, due to better architecture & pipelining than intel chips... | |

John, if you knew anything about microchip architecture then you would know AMD are in fact thicker and bulkier chips. This is how they are clocked lower yet are the same speed as a higher clocked Intel. | |

I personally like AMD because imo they offer better value for money. Pound for pound you'll probably be better buying an AMD although i'm not sure how well either of them perform lately at the top end of the market. Have a look and see what fits the budget, then search for reviews of them on google. | |

AMD is much better than Intel (ready for arguments) | |

to swap to an AMD chip you will need to change the mother board as well, not 100% but i wouldnt have thought you could do it for £100 | |

Im looking at upgrading and was wondering what everyone thought was best? Im not a serious gamer, but I do play the odd one. Just clocked half life 2 on my current 1.7ghz P4, so Im not looking at anything stupidly fast and priced. I mainly use photoshop, office, the web, encode and burn a few dvds. Ive got a budget of £100 |
