After thinking about it some, that is a true statement as well. This poll is more on who has used what processors and what their slight fanboy (or girl) tendency is that a comparison of raw data.

anyway... if i would buy a new pc now.. i would go for a e6600 or x6800.. so i would go for Intell for sure. due to circumstances,.. ive been lucky and got this X2... and it runs like a dream too so far,... so i cant really complain about either of the 2 brands. besides.. im pretty sure AMD will release a new series of good CPU's pretty soon too.. wich will give the conroes a hard time again

i cant be bothered by the brand... the only the evolution of the CPU's will continue.. and who has the best CPU will vary from month to month.. ( so imo Intel and AMD are pretty equal on that.. in my oppinion

)

Although, I do like the new Intel's, I can say, that if I had a choice I'd still go with AMD, just becuase I haven't had one problem with them, and Intel I have now lost two processors...

This is a tough one.....

In my PC at home I have an Athlon 3400 and it is almost time to upgrade

The new intels are nice, and smoking fast but I have always been an AMD fan.....

I think it will come down to price. Which bundle deal can I get for the best products/price ratio.

I am going to build a dual processor system and go with SLI or xfire here soon (like in the next 6 months) and am kind of waiting for the new AMDs to roll out to see what I want to build.

Right now the Core 2 Duo chip is looking pretty impressive right now though.

PPC is pretty much not used on a consumer level at all anymore. You find it in server prodcuts and sparc systems.

I have used an Intel since I was first using computers. However I have used AMD and it was fast. If I could chose I would vote Intel and AMD but you can't so since I am building a C2D right now I guess I am voting Intel.
