What Processor is better Intel or AMD

[MarkOfA]

Hi guys I'm looking to buy a new computer but I'm wondering what processor is better Intel or AMD also if you guys could check out the links below and tell me what computer is better that'd be awesome!

I personally prefer Intel, but AMD is usually cheaper. So if you're on a tight budget, AMD might be the way to go

The second link doesn't work, it just takes me to the Newegg's homepage.

Intel is better.

Honestly when deciding between the two it all comes down to how much money you want to spend on your processor. AMD in great for the older based games but multi threads are starting to come into play alot more so Intel would be best.

If you have the money to spend for Intel, I would go for Intel, but even though AMD is cheaper it does some stuff very well!

Thanks, I got the link to work.

They are both very similar, don't get fooled by the "Eight-Core" AMD, it's still 4 physical cores, just a marketing gimmick. Since I prefer intel, the first one is better in my opinion. The second one does have a better power supply, but that's not that big of a deal, unless you're planning on upgrading in the near future.

They both should be fine for those things. They both are probably going to last the same amount of time.

They both have have up the first one has intel graphics which will help for a more "future proof" build but the graphics isnt as great as the 2nd one. So if I was you I would go the first one and add SLI for double R9 graphics. The second build is cheap but good will last maybe 3 years before games cap it out on high etc but the 1st will last longer I would just put different graphic cards.

I would put like MSI R9 twin frozer

 

[MarkOfA]

where can i get the graphics card and how much will it cost?

This won't work, there's only one PCI-E slot on the motherboard that comes with it (ASROCK MOTHERBOARD Z97 ANNIVERSARY)

If you're just planning on replacing the graphics card, there's no point in buying a pre-built computer anyways IMO.

Something like this might work if you're willing to build the computer yourself: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/8CbnMp

You can buy most (if not all) the parts from Newegg.com

Are you willing to build it or do you want to buy a pre-built one? How much can you spend, at most? What country are you located in? (Different computers are sold in different countries, which is why I ask)

 

[MarkOfA]

I'm willing to build it or get it pre-built whatever is cheapest, I'm willing to spend atleast no more than 800$, I live in Canada
