i know this question must have cropped up many times, but ive been trying 2 decide for a long time whether to stay with intel or go with amd.
i know that intel is supposed to be better for multitasking, but which is better for CAD programs, 3D rendering programs, creative suite (photoshop, illustrator etc..)? how superior is the better cpu? i would like to stay with intel, but if i get the new chips then im gona hav to change my mobo, my ram, and my video card.i need to change my video card anyway but i want to keep my ram.i suppose i would have to change my mobo if im going amd but i just need someone to guide me or even tell me.
i have been debating this issue for sometime. my real question is the difference between the two worth picking one over the other in terms of performance with the applications listed above?
i have heard that the new amd cores have had great success with happy customers and great overclocks. amd looks more inviting but i just dont know.
i wont be up grading until august so theres a couple months from now.
another thing is that i will most probably be getting a vapochill, so which would fair better under a vapochill?
long post i know, and thanks t oevery1 who has taken ther time to read and hopefully give advice, and sorry bout the shorthand.
