What is better?

[Excellent1]

AMD or Intel? I'm looking at motherboards :P

[N!ck]

At this current instant, Intel.

I'd say it depends what type of computer it's going to be and what it's going to be used for.

Is intel faster?

As far as I know, more energy efficient and you get more for your money (the Core 2 DUO range that is).

If you're going for a lower spec machine and looking to choose between an Intel Pentium D and an AMD Athlon 64 X2 then the AMD is the one to choose.

i would say intel, i got a 3.4ghz for £15

[Stephen!]

Can you even get 3.4Ghz celerons?

Can you even get 3.4Ghz celerons?

I've seen 3.2s. I'll check now.

There is a 3.33 GHz, 3.46 GHz, and 3.6GHz according to Wiki.


Edit: some on the Intel site as well. No 3.4s though :(. http://compare.intel.com/pcc/default.aspx?familyID=3
