Depends on ur usage .. if u wanna just plug in and forget about things , then AMD all the way . if u really wanna OC the hell out of the CPU , then Intel ... not that AMD' wont oc ,,, but this is just a simple comparison :p ..

Those supporting AMD 5000+ can u people plz tell me how u all r suggesting that procy and telling that its price is lesser than 6320? Coz in the theitwares the price of 6320 is given Rs.7750 and 5000+ Rs.8100. And if u visit this *xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/core2duo-e6420_7.html#sect0 u will see that they r quite head to head. No grudges plz just want to know the truth.

Intel hands down as of now...

I mean dun let the proccy sit idle; so go n extrzct evry juice outta dat C2D proccy n AMD wudn get close enuf...

AMD + AMD mobos're cheaper options as of now... Fer the casual gamers as well.. Intel mobos come @ a premium as always...

Intel as of now...

Without doubt the E4300.... O'clocks @ 3Ghz really well n ther're ppl who've done it with Intel Retail coolers itself... It'll easily surpass AMDs' till the X2-5000!!!!

But u need a good o'clockin mobo @ 6k... Like D XFX 650i ultra whick helps o'clock better...

Ther's a newer proccy in Intel- E2160...

Frer ur kind info, d Intel E2160 easily o'clocked till 3.6Ghz with Aftmkt coolers and easily overtook the QUAD 6600(If M not mistaken)... Yes D quad proccy...

Depends in simple words.. OC --> Intel
No OC--> AMD...... Btw Oc is not a tough matter so I would go Intel way currently ;) Listen being a fanboy of any brand is not a good thing there are ups and downs every day. So being a fanboy is not good. 1 should buy 1 which is leading :) And the war btw these giants will give benefit to user as better products at lower cost are available ;)

A simple comparison between the working of Intel and AMD proccies.

Task: Take 10 litres of water from Point A to Point B.

Intel: Take 1 litre of water from Point A to Point B. Repeat it 10 times. (Less work, more cycles)

AMD: Take 5 litres of water from Point A to Point B. Repeat it twice. (More work, less cycles)
