I've been torn between the whole Intel Vs. AMD debate. I'm willing to use either one, I really don't care. The problem is that I've made 2 builds with AMD and Intel parts for around the same price, they're about the same price (within $10), and I I'm trying to figure out witch on would be better for the price.

 

Intel Build

 

AMD Build

 

 

They're both look pretty good. I just would like to know what you guys thing and witch one you'd get.

 

ALSO Power consumption is not a factor.

 

ALSO ALSO, NO FANBOYS/GIRLS

The AMD is better. Also, the 650 Ti BOOST is a pretty bad card for the price. A 7850 is cheaper and performs much better.

The games that are being played on this system usually prefer CUDA cores and NVIDIA over StreamProcessors and AMD GPUs.
