Intel has better single-threaded (games) perfomance than AMD. AMD still has some great processors, such as the 8350, but it's better for multitasking and video encoding.

i personally think amd. because its cheaper so you get more bang for your buck. go with the AMD FX series, that's my preference. dont quote me on benchmark specs between amd vs intel but i dont think its anything amazing in the difference. also not 100% sure my self but i have been told intel are better at keeping the cpu cooler than AMD, again i cannot confirm.

Just thought id shed a little light to my thoughts 😀

Those are laptop cpus! Are there a discrete video cards involved? If not the AMD is about 4x better at least.
