There is a real performance difference. Shortest answer I can give you; Intel is better.

AMD looks better on paper but due to their architecture Intel always wins for the same price. I read a review a while back comparing AMD to Intel for given price ranges (50-100, 150-200...etc) and the closing statement was this; "Amazingly, given our results we honestly can not recommend a single AMD CPU over Intel at any price range". I'll try to post a link if I find it.

For a low budget: grab an i3 or Pentium G860
Medium/low budget: this might be the only place I would consider a Phenom II, but personally, I'd still get an i3 lol
Medium: low range i5
Medium/high: i5 3570K for epic overclocking
High budget: Intel i7 3770K
Retarded budget: Intel i7 Black Edition 3970X


Taken from Toms Hardware.

If I were to reply to your question personally I would take all day so I found some answers from other people to sum it up better for you.

I prefer intel because I have been with them a long time and I like the customer support they provide (I have never used AMD but I have no need to when intel are so good)

Yeah I have used Intel for a while but I haven't upgraded my computer for about 4 years, and Im about to build a new one, I have made a post about it, I have a budget of 600 but I don't know anything to buy because of the wide range of items, really need help.

intel is your way to go man, no offensive to AMD lovers.

if your going to be gaming and have a medium/high budget i would recommend getting an i5370k.
