What processor brand do you use?

[sokO]

I've had an AMD and an Intel.


Summary:
Don't listen to the poll. Both will get the job done almost equally. Choose whichever one listed above that is cheaper.

E8400 45 nm Technology is the shiz!!!

that cpu is awesome i have it too and it does everything.

also had a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ ~2.4ghz also ran great

I have AMD on the current ATI/AMD comp I'm building,But the next rig I'm working on will be Intel/Nvidia.So I can have the best of both worlds.

Intel C2D ftw!

intel Q6600 2.4 quad probably the best cpu for the money. It is considered to be right now and I got mine over a year ago.

Don't spend 30$ more on the 9950, get the 9850 and just OC it to match the 9950s clock, if you feel so inclined.

Spending 30$ on a GPU that's .2 ghz higher is a waste, especially when you can easily OC the 30$ cheaper one quite easily to match the speed.

I run at Conroe E6600 because when I built my computer, AMD didn't seem to have a good offering... if I rebuilt now, I would lean towards one of the Phenom processors

i perfer amd, but all the computers that i have had have had intel processors

I am getting a Intel E8400 because it gave me enourmous value for money ofer AMD, but I live in Europ and with the Euro prices are different there. But most of my friends with good computers have Intel and they never had any problems with it.

@Volcom, do you have a guide for your that overclocking somewhere?
