Hey thats my build!

Oh yeah I see you changed the RAM

Yeah my build is 100x better

Intel better than amd?

Preference

For gaming without any doubt. Because of higher IPC and games only take advantage of low core count.
So a dual core intel would in a lot of cases give better game performance than an octa core amd.
The upcoming ryzen should have 52% better IPC, so it will almost close the gap.
