Gaming: OpenGL: The Intel chips are much faster

With all respect, this does not seem to be correct.

See this

Here A64 3000+ is faster than Pentium 3.4E - CPU twice as expensive.

Gaming: DX8: The AMD chips are faster, no doubt about it
Gaming: DX9: It's virtually a tie, as the AMD chips are two to three
TENTHS of a percentage point faster than Intel.

So on the gaming benchmarks, that's one win for Intel, one win for AMD
and
one tie.
GAMING OVERALL: TIED

Business Applications: Office Applications: Intel blows AMD away

Incorrect. Depends on benchmark suit. In general, streaming applications
(including image processing) work better on Intel, Excel/Word type
applications are faster on AMD. Development (compiling) is also
significantly faster on AMD.

Intel is better than AMD, at the moment. The only way AMD could
change that
would be to drop their prices by 30% or better. -Dave 9/20/04

Depends on type of applications you want to run.
