Q: Hi- I am looking at computers, and am trying to figure out the difference between Intel & AMD. I don't know if this is in my head or what, but I have always thought that Intel was better and faster. Is that true?? I want to know currently, which is better, faster, etc. Any differences on power saving?? Thanks!! If you have questions, please ask, and I will add details. Also...this isn't part of the main question, but are HP computers any good? I've always thought they were "the best", until my friend said that they were more a mouse/keyboard/printer company. :) Thanks! I do choose best answers!
A: Hey. Well, generally Intel is faster, cooler and more powerful than AMD, but because of that, it is much more expensive. AMD (which is my preference) is not as fast as Intel and runs hotter (shouldn't be a problem with adequate cooling) but it is much cheaper. As for powersaving, I would say that since AMD is not as powerful, it would use less power - generally. HP computers used to be considered one of the best, but the quality of their computers has fallen slightly. They are still good, but not like before.
