Rofl, someone has too much time on their hands. The AMD, and mobos for the AMD are cheaper. It would be better to get better RAM and a better GPU for the price difference imo.

At stock they are similar, but with a good cooler it is possible to pust the i5 to around 3.8-4GHz that's around a 50% increase for the i5 and if the 965 is at 4GHz that's around a 17% increase.
The 965 is £10 cheaper and your mobo is £6 cheaper. Ram is the same. So for £16 extra, your gaining performance, and 'future proofing' your PC for longer.
