Question Is there any reason why an AMD test configuration could or could not be use?

Tom's component evaluations seem to be tested on Intel(CPU) motherboards.

Tom's component evaluations seem to be tested on Intel(CPU) motherboards.

Which components? and why would that really matter which platform they use?

I agree something like memory absolutely should be conducted on both platforms though. Since AMD and Intel memory controllers obviously behave differently you can't make any kind of sweeping recommendations without doing so.
