AMD is a better choice for home PC's and laptops than intel

Thank you Con, for your arguments. "Because an AMD chip doesn't work as well." By which point of view does an AMD "doesn't work as well" when processing word documents and using the internet maybe even if with 7 internet connections? My worthy opponent argues that I fail and ignore to acknowledge locations which I don't. Con has done a serious misinterpretation of my argument. At home, having 7 internet connections...how does that concern with individual computers having individual processors? Client/Server network is not a concern of this debate, Con. AMD processors are not for that purpose(of being a server)...and Intel processors which are made for that purpose (Xeon) cost $ 1500 at the lowest which is definitely not an amount one would like to spend on a processor itself and (Xeon) was designed for work at workstations which have more than 100 to 1000 clients in a floor of an office. Our concern is Peer-peer networking or Client/host networking(some machine/internet). Coming back to the argument that I have failed to acknowledge locations, Yes, IGN.com has given us a very good insight on the US network but here, I would like to share that I live in a metro which has complex network systems with so large a population accessing the net. Here, I access all at one go, high speed LAN, WI-FI, Broadband...moreover, I have Windows 8 because of which I have am able to and play a lot of Xbox live....take on that con, A heavy network usage + a gaming usage of the processor and I have NEVER experienced a single Lag. "It does in the US, most houses have many different connections." Does it? Dear con, please elaborate the meaning of the above sentence. Many different connections....In a metro of our country, we too have many different connections and it does not hamper the smooth performance of an AMD. Just take it in, does a tablet have awesome processors like Intel or AMD? Nope. Then why doesn't it lag very heavily as it is suppose to according to your definition of the usage of net? Google Doc? bios updates? FACEBOOK??? Let me refresh your database by giving you my own story. My friend having a new i5 used to boast... one day I went to his house...and opened my FB account, guess what I saw when I opened the Task manager? 85-95 % of CPU usage. In my machine, I open facebook, which I am doing right now and keep a game such as GTA 4 in the background...when my father comes, I switch to Debate.org and FB while all the time I play GTA 4 and change frequently by Alt+Tab. I tried this on my friends i5 rigged machine and the speed and durability which he boasted on, vanished..The machine started lagging and the screen went black. The processor side of the machine became hot like hell. Finally, we had to plug it out. Both of us have almost the same specs...same GPU, Ram amount etc... except the processor. http://www.flipkart.com... Go to the above link and read the reviews. "wow is the word" named review will give you the insight of the kind of multitasking and AMD is capable of over an Intel. And that laptop, Con, is rigged with a low end Richland CPU...If that can do such things, Even I am not sure about the limits of my High end Phenom. Have you noticed the price? Its Rs. 32000 and a processor of such power by intel itself costs Rs 20 to 30000 whereas you get a whole Laptop By HP at that price with awesome specs when the machine is rigged with an AMD. "Most people do not Overclock, and never intend to" I wholeheartedly agree with that. Many people do not intend to overclock their processors. I do not. Moreover, as I have already mentioned about human ignorance, most of us do not even know what is Overclocking. "If AMD has to overclock, a dangerous process, to be better than Intel, than(this should be 'then' instead of 'than' ,con) is it really better?" Now, this too is a misinterpretation of my argument, CON. I am sorry if I couldn't express myself well. What I meant to say is that when People like to mingle with the specs, they will choose AMD cause it gives them the freedom. The clock rate at which a CPU runs is the rate set by the makers. The high rate of overclocking capacity in an AMD shows us the High power, Durability and the trusts of the makers as well as the users on AMD, over an Intel! AMD doesn't need to overclock to be better than Intel. The example in my argument was based upon your theories only"As my worthy opponent says, that the AMD-MHz doesn't equal to the Intel-MHz" . The MHz is all equal only the case of the cycles. AMD tears huge piles, sure. Intel is faster bit by bit, is also right but please agree on the fact that bit by bit quickness is never required in the tasks that an average person does at home. Neither in the usage of internet nor in the use of various application softwares. "In your country, and without 7 other computers and half (exaggeration) the things in the house requiring Internet." Ad Hominem. have you visited our country or do you research on our country? We too keep on accessing the net with various sources Wifi,LAN,broadband etc...24*7. As I have mentioned earlier...XBox live,Skype,FB all of these are as common as Staple diet and an AMD does better at these jobs than an Intel when you have background processes running. Con, while doing FB...do you always keep your desktop clean and no background processes keep on running?Never play any games? Multi-task? Only depend upon the high-speed of an Intel to do tasks like document processing? And my argument, Money for job, a scale not followed by Intel. See, A Low end i3 cost Rs 10000, and a high end phenom with multi cores cost Rs 10000 too. The i3 lags at games, Multitasking is not good. Try Skype and it lags, FB shows high processor usage while, The Phenom can do all of these tasks together without any lag. See Reviews at Legit.com. By this we can say that Intel is not Value for money. Think about it. Why that cost if it is not up to the mark. The intel processor that can match the performance cost more than Rs 35000 in Ebay as well as Flipkart. Intel for many "useless for the user" reasons have added to the costs of their processors to impossible rates! While, AMD has developed towards giving the user an awesome performance and quality but has not been able to impress the market for stereotypes and Human ignorance at such a delicate yet an uninteresting matter such as "what is a processor" or " Is there a variety of processors except intel?". This is the actual truth .even the dealers know little about AMD. I once asked a dealer what he knew about processors. He knew about AMD alright but very little. He explained me that AMD makes processors for Cell Phones!!and he also told me that AMD processors are only dual core! this shows us that even the dealers are filled up with half,not reliable knowledge. So, what reaches to the ears of the public is not surprising. CONCLUSION...... Think about it, Does one buy a Pc or a Laptop to process worksheets? Download? or does one need some entertainment? Yes, every computer does have its own necessity...but when the necessity is fulfilled by a cheap AMD, why not install it instead of a Costly Intel? Take some common sense, does internet require High class processing power? If so, why do cheap phones easily play you-tube videos and stream through FB? If high speed is not actually required for any of the tasks that one does at home and if Intel can't handle high end games and Applications such as AutoCAD and Maya or even Facebook, How can we say that neither is better? Of course, AMD is a better choice than Intel in home PC's and Laptops. Thank you.
