I'm not saying Intel is better or trying to argue about it, I'm asking why.
I've read on Gamespot that Intel is the best for pure performance and AMD can't really stand up to it.
I'd like to know why, I was looking at the Phenom II X4 Quad-Core 955 and the Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge and it's pretty well known that the Intel is better.
But looking at their stats I don't see a difference, the website I'm using only specifies on the following;
Cache
Cores
Processor Speed
Socket
Warranty
Looking at the website they both are identical except for the i5 2500k being 3.3Ghz instead of AMD's 3.2Ghz. Both are quad core and have 6mb cache's.
Now aside from the overclocking capabilities of the i5 2500k why is it considered better than the Phenom 955?
Just curious, this is purely for me to learn more about PC's in general Thanks in advance.
