Which brand generally has better processors and would be better for a long term investment in a PC?
-
Agreed with everyone else in this thread. Intel is probably the better long-term investment.
-
Getting an Intel just for a gaming PC is pointless and a waste of money.
-
Intel makes better processors. People with AMD will tell you the same. It's just that AMD is the cheap option. Still very good though, because of that cheap factor.
-
I like AMD right now. Unlocked multipliers. Unlocked multipliers everywhere.

Edited by Ad Hoc: 1/13/2014 4:48:42 PMIntel has better CPU's, but that doesn't mean AMD's aren't worth buying. Even the $120 FX-6300 is more than enough for any game you want to play right now. Just buy one of those and spend your money on a good graphics card. [spoiler]Would you rather have an i7 and a GTX 760, or an FX and a GTX 780?[/spoiler] [spoiler]The latter is correct.[/spoiler]

Intel is better, but I would recommend getting an AMD one at the moment because Xbox One and PS4 both have AMD APUs so next gen games will most likely be more optimized for AMD.
-
If youre on a budget then probably AMD

Intel is more powerful but AMD's price to power ratio blows intel out of the water.
-
It depends. AMD make great budget CPUs and there's no denying that they're going to have a distinct advantage going in to next gen. But right now, Intel has the better CPU lineup and is more geared towards the heavy spender.

Intel is better but AMD is good stuff cheap.
-
Depends on what your build is for.
-
I use an AMD, but there is no denying that Intel makes the better processor.
-
Depends on the purpose of your build. Have an AMD related picture! :3
-
Intel for Processor. AMD for Graphics card (obviously).
-
Intel usually has better single core performance, which is what most people need.

I tend to go with Great Value brand
