The Intel processors are very performance oriented and the long lasting as compared to the AMD processors. The Intel processors are expensive then the AMD processors. So i you have less money then you can buy the AMD phenom II x4 processor. But there is one problem with the AMD processors this is totally made for the gaming and watching movies in the computers. This processors heats more and early as compared to the Intel Core 2 duo processors. So if you are buy the PC for all the purposes then buy the Intel Core 2 duo E8400 processor.
