### Comment:
The thing is they're both powerful ass cpus, and more power than a majority of the buyers are even going to use them for. So the cheaper of the two is going to come out on top, even if the other is better. Going long on AMD. 
  
 No idea what an average joe would do with an 8 core 4.0+ghz, and those have been pumped out for years. 
  
 If AMD could figure out better thermal and power usage, Intel would go bankrupt.

### REPLY:
Gen pop hasn't needed full power for a long time. Thing is, we just want better than the other guy and we feel like we bagged a bargain if we get that cheaper. High end, mid priced AMD CPUs will fly off the shelf when their brand becomes the norm.

### END.
