So, i was looking around newegg and originally i was gonna buy an intel, not anytime soon but after the 6 cores come out and lower the quad core prices. So i spotted an AMD x4 965 black edition 3.4ghz for way way cheaper. Now my last computer was an amd and i was fine with it. I always hear that intel is ahead in the CPU game but how far ahead?
Like is the intel here worth the extra 400 dollars?

now keep in mind im coming from a intel dual core 2.3 ghz. So either one of these is gonna be a huge upgrade. If i got the AMD i would overclock it to a safe 3.7ghz. So what do you think?
