Obviously different companies, but besides that AMD processors mu go in motherboard that use an AMD socket and Intel processors must go into an Intel based socket. Intel processors seem to be a bit more expensive but Intel is on top with the newest technology. Many AMD "fans" would argue this.
Amd is just awesome then intel.
Intel processors and AMD processors use a different architecture and AMD tends to be a little bit behind. Intel is working on 14nm and is currently at 22nm, while AMD just now advanced to 28nm.
amd is newer than intel so it must be better.
The main two manufacturers are INTEL and AMD. The 4th quoter results of 2008: INTEL - 80.96% AMD - 10.6%
Intel = buissness and work AMD= gaming and raw power
Intel is a good processor, usually quite fast and powerful. AMD also a good processor, difference between them is that an AMD is easier to overclock (make it run faster than it should) AMD's are made to be overclocked. No real advantage or disadvantage just matter of opinion, and what you want to do with it.
AMD is the ONLY compeditor of Intel AMD
The best processor between AMD oand Intel based on their features is basically INTEL,as it is more affordable and popular.
Intel and AMD
Intel Corporation, Advanced Micro Devices, and Motorola Corporation.
Intel microprocessors are second to none. They are higher quality and more reliable than AMD microprocessors, and they have a better overall reputation in the market. AMD came on the market to offer a low cost alternative to Intel's microprocessor line. There have been many heated debates between both loyal users of Intel and AMD, as to which one is the best microprocessor around. C/NET did an article on a duel-core CPU between Intel and AMD. Their results are that AMD out performed Intel in seven areas tested. http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10442_7-6389077-1.html Wither you choose Intel or AMD it is always important to be informed about the product you are buying.
