    Default Should I buy AMD phemon II or Intel Core i7 920?

    I'm uncertain about both yet I looked at benchmarks I never used AMD and I have a 1 PC as well as 1 laptop both are Intel. I maintain Intel but I also support ATI Radeon too. It will be used mostly for gaming, browsing; video editing as well as all other basic apps you would do as family.

    Advantages of using AMD

    Cheaper
    Most bang for pound
    Has support for ATI graphic cards

    Disadvantages of using AMD

    Not popular as Intel
    only has a 4 cores with 4 hyper threading compared to core i7 with 4 cores along with 8 hyper threading.
    Less application support.

    Help me to choose.

    The i7 will give you superior presentation in video editing, but the Phenom II will permit you to purchase an enhanced graphics solution making it superior in gaming. What is your budget?
