Is there any real difference between AMD and Intel?
The fundamental difference is in the area of IO operations. Intel uses a “Memory Manager” that forces all IO operations through a dedicated circuit. AMD does not use this approach. The net result is that AMD chips at the same frequency are faster. However, that has to be balanced by the greater expenditure on research done by Intel. Their chips have led the way in size and low power consumption. The best approach is to select the chip based on your specific needs.
