I've run several different AMD Processors in my days but have never really been impressed with any of their stuff.

I run an AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black. At the time I got it, it was only slightly less performance than the comparable Intel chip, for a third the price. I am perfectly happy with the performance.

Intel does indeed have better performance, but, AMD still beats Intel when it comes to bang for the buck.
