    AMD ownz all. you'll get better speeds with the AMD. If you have the money, I would get the FX or the dual core...

    If your going to use it for gaming go for AMD. The reason is if your going to be playing for long periods of time, the P4 get's alot hotter than the AMD X2. Also the AMD has been proven to use it's memory caching more effeciently than the P4.

    even if the speed (ghz) wise of each one is different it doesnt mean p4 is faster. The speeds dont equate the same they're two different kinds of chips

    The AMD will be faster even thought the P4 is at higher ghz. AMDs run faster than its allocated Ghz.

    AMD seems like the best lately..I'd say go with that..

    and I agree, go with the dual core or FX if you have unlimited money..

    also, if you have unlimited money buy me one too and send it over XD
