I've asked everyone I know, dozens of people including a dell representative and the only answer I can ever find is "Well, they are neck and neck". I need an answer please! My current machine is used for gaming and I hear rumors that AMD towers over Intel for gaming, can anyone confirm this? Also anyone know of any good motherboards and processors that would be great for gaming? I am replacing my Video card, mother board, and processor. I have the GeForce 7800 picked out as a video card, but for a motherboard and processor, I was considering the Intel 955 though.
