At present, INTEL and AMD are two brands that dominate the market for processors. This first is a multinational company which manufactures microprocessors and integrated circuits, specialist, auxiliary integrated circuits for computer motherboards and other electronic devices. Currently is the most demanded in the market, well ahead of AMD, which is not to say that this is most backward, on the contrary, the Californian brand comes stomping very lately.

1. What is the recommended and most powerful processor?

Intel is approximately an average of 10% more powerful than AMD, something that is certainly one of the factors that we are most interested in. This last numeric data has contrasted between more than 20 studies by the web, which demonstrates that, comparing processors of both brands with the same characteristics, Intel makes its performance a 10% higher than its rival.


2. Which3. Value for money:CONCLUSION:

When choosing a processor, you should know to differentiate the use you want to give to the use that you are actually going to give. I have personally been the victim of wanting to have the best processor that exists even though its high price. Actually use that is going to give is not even half of what you want, given that user, I again urge in the claim of get a processor brand AMD, since performance will be more than optimal.
If we think at the level of enterprise, medium or high, which are carried out works in those who need a powerful, and which count to the last second, then Yes, I recommend INTEL, given that very likely, 99%, not you will fail.

Comparison between the processor INTEL Core i7 5930 k 3.5 GHz and AMD A10 - 6790K 4 GHz processor:

*INTEL Core i7 5930k 3.5GHz:

[img=300x300]http://teknoboard.mx/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/1764.jpg[/img]
Price:Frequency: 3500 MHz

- Frequency turbo: 3700 MHz

- Bus speed: 5 GT/s DMI

- Multiplier clock: 35

- Socket: Socket 2011-3 / R3 / LGA2011-3


*AMD A10-6790K 4GHz:Price:Frequency:Frequency turbo:Bus speed:Multiplier clock:Socket:
 
You know the old saying, you get what you pay for. Of course AMD is cheaper as its a cheap CPU. I have burnt out more AMD's then Intel.

This is a debate that has been going on since AMD first came out. You will get people arguing this and arguing that about each chip. Theres been arguments over which is faster. I can tell you this from working in computer repairs for a decade now. Replace more AMD chips then Intel. To this day, I think I have only killed on Intel chip.

I also think the prices listed at way to high for just a chip. I also know, that when you a buy a computer with an AMD in it, its not much cheaper then the Intel version of.

AMD is much better in my opinion for your money atleast, But if you want gaming quality, Nivida*** It is the absolute best in my opinion and rns the best.

When AMD releases the Zen processor, this will support DDR4. Honestly, I have not seen much difference between a DDR3 versius DDR4 ram. I am sure this may stir the pot a bit, but I am being honest. I have ran benchmarks after benchmarks, although ddr4 is a bit higher it is not enough for me to jump.

ADM? :lol:

I run AMD because it's not funny when I slice 2 core from i7 for virtualbox.
I rather have 8 core of CPU & slice 4 for virtualbox & keep other half 4 for main OS.
Since I also use Linux I even have many heavy reasons to run AMD.

Honestly, this post is only comparing the clock speeds, which isn't a good basis for comparison. If I put the two processors to the same synthetic workload, the i7-5930k will quickly spin circles around the A10-6790K.

Also, you do NOT have to actually buy the said i7-5930k anyway. For most users, an i5-6600k tops is what they need. Even that spins circles around the A10-6790k anyway.

Yep, Intel is definitely faster even they've 8C/16T already still they're faster than Zen that coming.
I've aim AMD Zen as cheaper & more space workload reasons just like the ram size reason rather ram bus speed.
AMD is like a truck it can't be faster than car like Intel.
Able to catch up to half speed of the car & able to pack more resource is already enough for me.

If AMD Zen that faster I don't think I'll happy about it because the CPU price will be super expensive rather than cheap.

Amd stock and business changes make it too unstable for me to trust, I used to be a huge advocator and fan boy until all that came along

I have an AMD Phenom II X6 1100T with 8gb of ram since 2011 and is on all the time, he never had any problems, the only update I did was put a cooler (Cooler Master: V6GT). Before the Phenom 2 I had a Core 2 Duo with 2GB ram, then go for a 2-core machine for a 6-core with more memory ram was very good, and also decided the price, get a beefier AMD it was equivalent to a I7 instead of having an I5.

There is one thing, which the
hardware enthusiasts forget often.

The software compatibility.

The binary executable file, which has been compiled for the
AMD processor, may be incompatible with the Intel processor.

Thus, the nice features, which are not compatible
with the other hardware, are sometimes useless.

Thus, the responsible developer
should consider the compatible features,
and then compare everything else.

Well pointed out @Artisan, someone should hive you a point for pointed that out

The microcode on all manufactures proccessors are different
to the point that even certain batches from Intel have different microcodes on
however as @Artisan pointed out if the deveolper is reponsible enough,
This goes back to my thread about securing your server
It is more than just writing a few lines and going,
look at what i have done

AMD back in the day did have a slight over heating issue,
which did shorting the life span of the proccessor
but as a good rule of thumb
if you are going to work your machine
buy a bigger cooler for your proccessor
even look at water cooling if you use a desktop

My one server is dual AMD Opteron Processor 2220 2.8Ghz
And I must say it does perform very well compared to the Dual Intel Xeon 2.8 Server
they are also almost 10 years old and have worked hard in thier life and still runs true


Laptops and the Apple mini are Intel Duo, centeno and core i7

Have a few ARM proccessor board here to,
and they also do well but not like the true power of 64bit proccessors.

Maybe one of these day's I will go get my gruby paws on an Intel Itanium proccessor server
Would like to see the performance of my db then.


but my main stay was always Intel, but that was a microscum thing I think.
Since i switched out of the glass enviroment, my opinion on a proccessors has changed

With Linux, you could get away with almost any form of old tech
Hence the Arm proccessors I am playing with.

Compatibility between both are still possible. After all, you don't code for the bare metal, and instead code using a compiler(x86 or x64) that works for all processors. So compatibility as an excuse is a no go.

AMD provides cheap price that competes evenly with the Intel chips. Though intel mostly and always got more better performance than AMD. Just my own thoughts.

Depends on which chips you're talking about here, as well as the country. For the most part, Intel's 6th gen stuff best all of the AMD stuff for the purpose you expect from them, for around the same price.

Unfortunately Intel has always pioneered the CPU market, to the point that most other compiditors who only did CPU development eiher went belly up or got bougt out and project we shut down or scaled out of the market, Yet AMD has always managed to be there all the way, but the also do a large variaty of other modules.

Intel yet again has now pioneered a garenteed future, just a few weeks ago they upstreamed the AI. "The end is nigh" "Monty Python"
