even at stock i would chose a phenom ii x4... only the smallest bit slower in games, much better at threaded stuff like editing, encoding and multitasking. maybe im basied cause a have an x4 and love. it. but i wouldnt go back on my amd over intel choice, not in this budget range

the i3 holds its own and is also a good proc, but look to the encoding, rendering video editing and other multithreaded benchies. the x4 crushes the i3. the i3 does the smallest bit better in most games, but not by a wide enough margin to make up for this, in my opinion. this is all stock, for the amd a high stock of 3.7 but stock with a free stock cooler. even so, 4ghz can easily be had on a good chip with a $20 212+, made up for by the fact amd boards are about 10-20 dollers cheaper (for sim. quality.)
