I don`t get the unreliability comment aimed at AMD, it`s very old school thinking (like 10 years ago at least old school) - I will say it again, AMD are trouncing Intel and Intel has no answer. It is expected Intel will not catch up for about 5 years.
I can not think of a single reason anyone wanting a gaming rig would go Intel over AMD.
Given i`m not the brightest, but AMD beat Intel in every benchmark at every price point and comparable product by a country mile. Add in the you can easily overclock AMD whilst Intel lock their chips down gives even more reason.
I get why people are Apple junkies even though there are better phones on the market (Apple has a great OS for one) but with a CPU for a PC it just doesn't compute (I thank you)!
