Intel E5200 vs AMD e5050

Thanks guys. I am also buliding a general use PC, which I am gambling on a AMD chip with (always used Intel in the past). So, I think the Intel might be a safer option for this HTPC. Its being paired with a Asus P5N7A-VM, by the way.

AMD Athlon II X2 is coming 2nd of June...sure you can't wait? 3Ghz, 2MB L2 Cache, 65W on 45nm. It's AM3 only, but you can get cheap DDR3 RAM and Motherboards:

Same old story though, wait for this, then something else will be on the horizon. Plus the extra costs will push it all over. Thanks for the input though.
