    Both :)


    Mainly used Intels over the years but have no preference at all,

    Intel P4 1.7ghz
    Intel P4 2.4
    AMD 64 3500+

    Home build is the option for me apart from the AMD as its a laptop

    I run 50/50 in my use of AMD/Intel. I firmly believe AMD has the better processor for desktop use, faster performance at lower clock speeds and lower core temps. However, Intel has the better processor for laptops.

    I really don't have a preference. I'll take Intel or AMD.

    Either way, I support amd for gaming and intel for everyday use and laptops.

    Both laptops = Intel. First build desktop = Intel. Desktop upgrade = AMD. Newly-ordered laptop for work = Intel.

    Honestly, I can't say as I'm overly impressed with the AMD over the Intel. Yeah, I got it because it was cheaper, but it was supposed to be so noticeably different from my Intel that I would be blown away. Not so much.
