I know these chips are amazing and can be overclocked to a very high spec If you know what you are doing and use the proper cooling solution.

I would recommend and AMD-fx chips to all computer users and enthusiasts.

People who choose Intel are either loyal to the brand, have loads of money and can afford twice the price for a tiny bit more performance, or they just buy into Intel's Brand power.

I have used AMD for about 5 years and have never come across a failed or broken chip. The main reason chips fail is because people ruin them with "abused Overclocking". If you just get a half decent cpu cooler you can boost these chips performance by a safe 20% and the price can't be beaten by Intel.



Intel chips are also very very good, but the price for me Is always too high.

If you take into consideration "moors law" both Intel and AMD could offer much better processing speeds, but being a shareholder owned company they want to make as much money as possible. So they trickle out the Technology and pile on the price ever time they increase your clock speed by a few hundred megahertz.

Thats business I'm afraid, and thats why I'll always buy AMD. BANG 4 BUCK!
