Waco Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 If you are gaming AMD is the better alternative for the money. Athlon II X4s and Phenom II X3/X4 CPUs are *very* cheap and you can get away with an AM2+ motherboard and DDR2 to save money.

Hedghawg71 Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Remember when you read this... They are both excellent chips. Intel is currently the overall performance king, hands down. BUT if you're not video decoding or number crunching and just want a good gaming computer AMD will be just fine. The render times are just a few seconds apart from each other in the decoding/number crunching area. BUT Intense Gaming, day to day task mp3's they are almost identical. Not enough of a performance difference to warrant Intel's supreme price tags. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zafriez123 Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 ow..thanks.. but..i see many people use Intel than AMD for gaming.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dihartnell Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 ow..thanks.. but..i see many people use Intel than AMD for gaming.. AMD is cheaper everywhere, not just Malaysia. You can save money on CPU/Mobo by going AMD (something like Phenom X4 955/965 BE) and then put more money into video card.

Boinker Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Amd is good, intels good. If you want to spend the money then By all means get the set-up that is going to satisfy you. All in all. Its about you. enjoy, Hope you get what you want. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 but..i see many people use Intel than AMD for gaming.. That's true - but in the end it doesn't make much of a difference at all for most games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ak21 Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 I haven't really tried Intel too long to comment, but so far I am satisfied with AMD. Once again I think there about almost identical, but that is just me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobBan-Swe Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 Go for Amd if u only gaming, cheeper and no diffrence in speed Intel if u use musicprog like cubase ,3Dgraphic and HD video stuff B:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottike Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 AMD vs Intel, It's like Ford vs Chevy, or Honda vs Toyota. Both are good, Each will do some things a little bit better than the other. It just boils down to which one your more comfortable working with, they each have their own idiocycricies. Amd is a little cheaper, and at this time, doesn't quite have the performance that Intel has in a bleeding edge system. In an average gaming system the other components in your system, and the way the operating system is configured will have more impact on performance than the choice of your brand of processor.

panjang110 Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 hey dude, i'm from malaysia too and i think amd is much better in term of price/performance ratio when it comes to gaming. and if you're lucky you can get an extra core out of it for free ^_^ if you're only gaming on the pc it's better to spent extra money on gpu than cpu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
