AMD vs Intel

[PatZ1989]

Building a new gaming rig and wanted to know who is best to go with atm, the core i7's look pretty impressive but not having used AMD's im not sure

Thanks

Budget isnt really an issue, its a long overdue upgrade, however i noticed the price jump from a 922 core i7 (£250ish) to the next one was about 200 pound, not really worth it IMO

personally i wna stick with intel, if i could avoid spending hte extra i might, is there any practical reason to get the i7 instead?

 

[PatZ1989]

Long term plan is crossfire so maybe go with the i7

yeah, if im spending the money i would rather spend a bit more and get as much peformance as possible

I7 all the way!
