**Does anyone know of a website that compares AMD/Intel chips ?**  
I have always been a Intel man but some reviews I have read say that AMD is faster.  
So I want to compare what “bang for the buck” I get, but don’t know how to compare them.

These are both in the price range I was considering, but how do I know which has the better performance ?
