Excuse me, I don't know about computer issue until 2005 since I got PC (HP Pavilion) in 2003, also gift from my parent and it was $1,300 with Platinum 4 and Extreme Graphic (RAM is 512MB). I had tried to running on Sims and all bad lags are occured and that freak me out and make no choice. I had talked to some of my friend and asked me to trying on new PC that's under AMD, that will be my first time. I had been using Intel since 1998 and never using AMD for my life, then my final choice is AMD. I will going to make judge on myself about between on Intel and AMD, that other chance for me.
I had experienced with 3 computers that based on Intel and all of 3 computers are on slowdown and lagging after several month old then that remain me about Intel isn't running so good, 3 of computers are out of lucky... Now, I'm took too serious about want new PC with no slowdown and lag free, that what's good on diehardbiker's laptop, his laptop is based on AMD and brand is ACCR then he said its running so well for many time.

Intel processors doesn't deteriorate over time. It may seem like it but it isn't the case. I think you're begging to get computer classes just so you don't kill your PC's. No offense of course.
There are benchmarks as well that shows Intel killing AMD:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz VS
AMD Athlon 64 FX-62 Windsor
(tomshardware.com)
3d Studio Max 8 - Dragon_Character_Rig 1:38 > 1:40 Intel
3Dmark06 - CPU - Version 1.0.2: 2167 > 2136 AMD
3Dmark06 - graphics - Version 1.0.2: 6161 > 6107 Intel
AVG Anti Virus 7.1 - Filescan (3.85 GB, 14007 Files, 1177 Folder): 56 min > 59 min Intel
Call of duty - timedemo demo2: 180fps > 153 FPS intel
Clone DVD 2.8 - Transcoding DVD 9 to DVD 5 GB (Terminator 2 SE) 8:18 > 8:29 AMD
Divx 6.2.2 - first 5 Minutes DVD Terminator 2 SE: 5:52 > 6:45 Intel
F.E.A.R. - (v1.04), Benchmark2: 67 > 62 Intel
F.E.A.R. - (v1.04), Benchmark1: 129 > 126 Intel
If you arrogantly want an AMD, then be my guess. There's going to be a price drop on AMD on April 9th. Check it out:

You haven't checked any thread about what diehardbikers said about AMD since AMD is less bugs and better to running on PC, that which is heavy programming like Google Earth. He's biggest favorite with AMD and doesn't care about Intel, also Intel is known as head start for Core 2 Duo.
Honestly, this is bias. And Intel having
more bugs? What? LOL. What kind of lies are you eating up?
It all depends on the chipset, really, not the processor itself. Please, don't just use other uninformed people's amateurish opinions to support your stupid AMD > INTEL agenda.
