Intel or AMD

[RobertTreadway18]

What would be a good idea for an AMD build that would equal a build with a high end i5 processor using intel integrated graphics. 

I'm looking to build one and have always favored intel but I don't want to underestimate AMD knowing that they build some nice processors.

Anybody got some advice?

What's your budget? For lower budget PC's, get AMD (FX-8350), if you have more to spend it's better to go with an I5.

Yeah that's a good choice too, though the 8350 is not that much more expensive.

AMD vs Intel eternal battle which is better and which sucks... well as Tro said if u have low budget then go for AMD if u want better performance and budget can afford it then go for intel...

 

Differences between Intel and AMD aint that big in my opinion but i prefer Intel!

What's the purpose and specific budget for this system?

A potato is better than Intel's onboard graphics. If this is for a gaming rig, grab the AMD chip and use the savings to add more dosh into the GPU pool.

If you're using integrated graphics, go with AMD. AMD's APUs rek intel's onboard graphics.

Honestly what are you doing with your computer. As everyone ever would tell you

If you are editing videos producing audio or video go with Intel

If your gaming save yourself the money and go with AMD you can stream record and play games all fine with AMD.

Accidentally posting comments whoo!

Professional! 

If your only browsing the Internet watching tv or youtube videos then buy a cheap laptop off of ebay.

Don't go with AMD. They are in a bad shape right now & as I heard they're not even going to change architecture till 2016 if this brand will still make it to that time. Stay with Intel dude.
