Why not Intel? I am curious. I used to just build w AMD but my last two have been Intel. My last AMD builds were 3 years ago and had too much over heat problems in the summer when using the comp in a non- air conditioned room.
My guess is AMD is better now...but...960T overheated at 95 watts consumption. Winter it was OK but summer....fuggedaboutit!
My computers are AMD and run fine in summer, but I agree they are more likely to overheat and require more cooling.
