AMD has done better for me than Intel. I got the AMD A10 Black Edition processor, and it does wonders. Its very powerful and doesn't show any framerate issues when I push it past its limits.

Hey if you want a PC technicians help let me know and we can get together and chat, that way you can make a more informed decision.
I have the amd fx-6300 (running at base) and it can render 30fps 720p videos in the amount of time it takes to watch the video 
AMD will always be better bang for your buck and generally AMD is also better for overclocking. However people choose Intel because their processors are in a sense, 'better'. Although Intel's options are usually a lot more expensive and in some cases, overpriced. So at the end of the day it all comes down to what budget you have.

I agree Intel is way better then AMD in every scenario but price. Intel does cost a LOT more depending on what family you buy it from, like an i5, i7 or an i3, but AMD is a lot cheaper in price. So i would say that you would get more bang for your buck if your on a tight budget for AMD. AMD did break the world record for the highest clock speed in the Guinness world record book. They had a impressive clock at 8.1 Ghz. You can get a pretty high clock with an Intel CPU though. [DOUBLEPOST=1438500368][/DOUBLEPOST]I would buy it from Amazon and get 1-2 day shipping

Depending on what you use the processors for, but I prefer Intel for editing and gaming. However both processors are very good and perform well!
I would always pick Intel

I can't see the processors in question anymore, link is off.
But in a general way, i'd say Intel.
Amd is good for those who are in a budget and works with several applications at same time.
But for general gaming, Intel is just better. Especially if you have mid ~ high end VGA.
I already had 2 AMD's and currently on an I5. The I5 is sooo much better for gaming.

AMD is better suited for budget builds and usually dominates the low-mid range market in terms for processors. But it's Intel or nothing for high-end builds as the efficiency matched with the power and overclocking ability (on water) is something that really can't be matched.

+1 I have FX6350 ,and it's just a beast paired with a gtx 560 , I still can play most of the games on high or similar settings! But for high end build i would really recommend smth like i5 4690(k) or similar.
i5 And i3
