One is Intel, one is AMD.

The Intel® Core™ i5-650 is a 1st generation Intel core processor that is dual core processor with hyper-threading and Intel Turbo mode. The Intel Core i5-650 has been out for around a year and half and it has a clock speed of 3.2GHz. The Intel Core i5-650 does have IGP (Intergraded Graphics on Processor) but they are really more entry level graphics then anything you are going to want to run a game with.

The i5-650 is $190 on Newegg and scores 214 in SYSMark 2007. The Phenom IIx4 equivalent at that price is the 980 Black Edition, which scores a 215. Both can be overclocked.

Why you are comparing these I don't know. For that money you should be looking at this.

^^ Even an i3-2100 would be a better idea. Don't go with LGA 1156 right now. Total dead end.

Yes, but there must be something wrong with his build in order for him to offer you something like that.
