AMD vs Intel: A brief comparison

Intel and AMD have been founded almost at the same age around 1970’s and they are the main competitors in the desktop/laptop CPU (Central Processing Unit) industry. Next, a few features of both AMD and Intel CPUs will be mentioned:

-          Intel processors are more expensive than AMD

-          Intel employs multi-threading and increases the performance of a CPU

-          AMD offers more  cores for the same price

-          AMD CPUs can be overclocked while Intel processors are locked for over-clocking

-          AMD has bought ATI and they offer a good average performance for average gamers/computer users with their integrated graphics APUs (Accelerated Processing Units) at a low price

-          AMD has higher power consumption and heat generation than Intel

-          Intel processors are more proper for laptops since they offer bigger battery duration

 At the end AMD CPUs are proper for people who want a cheaper processing which can offer over-clocking and nice graphic performance. On the other hand, Intel offers less power consumption, less heat dissipation and higher reliability for coding and professional applications.
