Is AMD processors are better then Intel processors?

Answer 1

Typically AMD processors are known to run much cooler than Intel processors. The reason for this is based on the processing architecture of the processor. AMD processors are typically much more efficient with respect to performance per watt than Intel processors, and therefore typically are much cooler.

Answer 2

At this point in time, Intel processors are much faster overall than AMD processors, so it's a moot point. In the past, AMD processors were much more efficient than their Intel counterparts, because the Intel chips were designed to capitalize on one thing: clock speed. The architecture Intel was using at the time, NetBurst, was vastly inefficient. To achieve speeds comparable to that of AMDs chips, Intel's had to be clocked up to 1 GHz higher. This wasn't so bad for Intel, since at the time, everyone had though that a higher clock speed meant higher performance.

Answer 3

Before I answer I will tell you right now that I am a bit on an intel fanboy.
Look at it this way, AMD is like a Ford or Chevrolet car, It is fuel efficient and will get you where you need to go at a reasonable price. The Intel processors are like a Lexus or Audi, but can get as good as an Italian sports car. They are faster, well designed, and have better components that last longer. The downside is they use a bit more power and cost a little more to get where you want quicker.

An average AMD processor will cost about $30-$50 less than an intel processor

AMD processors are more energy efficient.

If you are getting a laptop that has one of AMD's APUs ( advanced processing units ) you are also getting a high quality graphics card built right into your processor! This eliminates the need for a discreet ( seperate ) graphics card in your system, allowing you to draw even less energy. Intel processors have integrated graphics cards that eliminate the need for a separate graphics card as well and they are more powerful than AMD's APU. Yes, they are not as energy efficient, but realistically energy is cheap. It costs around $0.00112 per Kilowatt hour. If you are not comfortable with paying $2 - $5 extra a month for up to 2x or 5x graphics speeds then AMD is the right choice for you.

Answer 4

If you have extra money to burn, Intel processors will give you a barely-noticeable performance increase over equivalent AMD processors. In most cases, though, the AMD equivalent is 50-75% cheaper than the Intel version, and offers reasonably equivalent performance.

BUT on the Technical side of things, intel gives much better core management. BUT if your looking for a laptop, and it says AMD on it, ignore it. I will say that AMD makes GREAT budget processors for desktop, but AMD`s laptop game is horrible. an old intel i7 2620M is better than a newer AMD laptop processor and the latter cost a lot more. so for a laptop, no, Intel is much, much better. For desktop, and you don't have extra cash to burn, AMD is better.
