Before Intel released the Intel Core 2 duo, AMD was was pacing foward, and now the Intel core 2 duo is dominate. It's one of the fastest processors currently, but, as you've said, the pricing is a little high.

So... IMHO, if it's price then AMD processors will do you right, they're still fast.. It isn't like you're buying a celeron or a sempron, ya know? And if speed is your domain, Intel core 2 duo

I agree with that. I have always been an amd guy and i have a turion 64 as well as an athlon 64. but i do have to say the core 2 duo is pretty sweet!
