intel dual or amd quad.

[mx344]

i am kinda in a debate wether i should get a quad core from amd,or a high end dual core from intel,

internet-45%
video/photo/music editing 25%
word processing-10%
games 20%

they are both about 30$ apart so it doesnt matter much,but i would like to know which one would suit me best?
amd-9550 X4
intel E8500

Neither, if you want to multitask get an Intel Q6600. Costs the same as the E8500, $190

Yea, I was gonna say, it's between Intel Quad or Intel Quad. Bottom line right now.

Q6600 FTW.

Yea I saw the pole thread and noticed this is a predominately liberal forum. But politics shouldn't effect the way we look upon each other to help one another. I just feel McCain is more suited for the job.. but let's not make this a political thread.
