lovely is correct, that was the case back in the A64 vs P4 days, but with the Core 2 Duo Intel is now in the lead.

I'm now an Intel fan, but I'm sure that will change when AMD comes out with the next big thing.... then it will change back when Intel beats that.... so on and so forth. The vicious cycle continues.

^^ No.... Intel has always been up top even when AMD releases there new things, Intel's old things are still faster.

As Ramodkk said, before the Core 2 Duo's AMD has the best performing processor, clock for clock. The Athlon 64 was the best gaming processor you could buy, and the Intel P4's were thought of mainly for multitasking and office tasks.
