As dedicated servers go, do you think it makes a difference whether you are using AMD or Intel?

Hello Friends.......

AMD's processors offer more bang/buck from the low-end to midrange. That's to say if you have a specific amount of money you can spend on a CPU such as $75, $100 or $160, you'll get a better performing CPU by going with AMD instead of Intel for the same price. But at the highest end, Intel's CPUs are better. The top Core i7 processors are better than the best Phenom II processors. However, they cost a lot more.

AMD allows you to get 90% of the performance for 60% of the price. Intel has the most powerful CPUs which run cooler and use less power, provided you're willing to pay a bit

Thanks

Alot of people do not know that the AMD Opteron processor was the blueprint for one of Intel's chips.  They actually leased the design from them.

AMD processors are by far more stable than Intel's over long periods of time.

I prefer AMD...As I usually like to go with underdogs...But performance-wise most experts would say that you get more out of Intel chips (although you pay more for them)
