so in your professional opinions who is better AMD or INTEL? which company is more innovative and why?
i am particular to AMD cause they are starting our societies much need conversion to 64 bit interfacing. apple has been there for years but now we are reaching the point to where we can't go much faster with our current 32 bit based processing capabilities. tell me what you guys think.
Well, I can't speak for the 32/64 bit issue, I haven't kept that up to date with processors, but They say that AMD processors clock faster than Intel processors....but Intel processors are built to last longer.....so it's all a toss up in the air, personally I use and used to build systems with Intel processors just because of the known quality, plus I was able to use the same board for either a Celeron or a Pentium when I ordered (some people I built for went with Celeron processors because they cost less, others wanted Pentium processors because they wanted the best).....
I really like my AMD, but find it tends to run a bit hotter than the intell....

From personal experience, I'll stick with Intel. I have had far less problems with them than with AMD. Just because AMD is pushing ahead to 64 bit doesn't mean that Intel won't be right behind.

AMD run hotter and in my experiance tend to be less stable than intel. As well as this, there "XP+" marketing package, is very reminiscent of Cyrix (i think) who did the same "We wont tell you the real clock speed but well tell you our "equivalent"" excercise.

HEAT: You are ignorant. Get up to date with the current facts.
XP+: People who base everything off clock speed are totally clueless and deserve to get ripped off by Intel. Enjoy parting with your money.
Oh, as for stability. Hey, when was the last time you heard of a major intel bug? Remember when AMD had one? Wait. what? You don't? Hmm...

No, they will be on the bottom. "Itanic" is a pipe dream for failed VLIW dreamers...

Intel is far ahead of AMD in the 64 bit market. They've had Itanium out and running for a long time with a 64 bit Windows. The difference with AMD is the "32 bit processor with 64 bit instructions".
I'm with you on the problems. I've sold quite a few of both, and used both in my own machines, and I think I'll stick with Intel too. On the other hand, a friend of mine says that all he's ever sold is AMD with hardly a problem to speak of. Maybe it's just my luck. lol.

Nothing is more despicable than a respect based on fear.
