i think that pentium is the best Intel has retained the Pentium trademark for naming later generations of processor architectures, which are internally quite different from the Pentium itself: Pentium Pro Pentium II Pentium III Pentium 4 Pentium M Pentium D Pentium Extreme Edition Pentium E2000 It can be seen from this that brand name is only loosely related to the nature of a CPU's microarchitecture. The Pentium brand is traditionally used for desktop and notebook parts, the Celeron brand is used for "value" parts (typically lower performance and lower price), and the Xeon brand is used for high-performance parts suitable for servers and workstations. The same basic microarchitecture may be used for all brands, but implementations may differ in clock speeds, cache sizes, and package and sockets. Moreover, the same name is used for chips with unrelated microarchitectures

as my freind sam says that pentium is best suited one for pc.......as it has very large memory capacity and a strong feature...........it has significant features like superscalar architecture,advanced APIC controller and a lot more makes it sitablle 4 personal computers....

Intel has always been the best. I've heard that AMDs can get heat more frequently than Intels. and I don't want to take risk. Besides Intel is trusted one.

i prefer AMD since i am using one.I use AMD because --comparatively cheap --high performance --high stabilty --greater support for gaming i recommned AMD FX 64 bit computing.It has many advantage over intel pentium 4 processors.but i heard that intel pentium duo core2 is much better than other precedures and a like performance with AMD 64.so i f you are going to buy a new computer either you go for AMD FX 64 or Pentium 4 Duo core 2. thank you!

these r the main chara of pentiumIV 2.4 mhz cache L1=8k cache L2=512k fsb=100mhz quad pumped line width=0.13 micron voltage drawn=1.5v current consmed=49.8 amperes power disspation=57.8mhz while amd continues to push their athlon xp chips along 66mhz,intel has pressed on in gr8 strides of 200mhz.if things go at tis pace,intel will break da 3ghz mark b4 amd hits 2ghz

AMD rocks.cheaper than Intel counterparts and also faster.i have both the PCs with identical features.A dual core AMD processor out performs an entry level core 2 Duo

both are good according to there use .For some application AMD is better and for some application pentium is best . you can just test by running a game in bith pc with same configuration , you can feel its different , for multi processing pentium is the best

I use Intel Pentium 4 n im quite happy with it. But some of my friends say that Amd is better as it generates less heat compared to P4.

hi i personally vote for Pentium because not just i owe a pentium four processor,but some of my friends have bought AMD processor and now regretting for the mistake they have did i choosing a slow and awesome processor like amd..

hey friend.. i would go with AMD only.... i got experience on both ... as m a designer by proffession i would suggest AMD... has got gr8 graphics ability... if u are a designer , gamer, working on 3D softwares,, etc then AMD is the best.... it gives more at lesser prices... N if ones talkin bout intel dual core then just check out AMD dual core 3800 64bit.... n then just tell whuz better.... just comparing dese would clear all the probs... pricewise, graphics wise, OVER-clocking wise!!!....etcc.. people AMD 's d best ... believe me....

definetly amd is better options frm both performance n economical point of view...
