However, the following is obvious: Intel processors are undoubtedly more advanced technologically, but AMD clearly wins in terms of price / quality ratio (at least in the middle price segment).

The discussion on this topic is clearly endless, and it is impossible to draw a final conclusion. There are two other points worth shedding light on: performance and overclockability of AMD processors versus Intel. Is it possible on the fly, focusing only on the numerical index and prices, to understand which is faster: a dual-core Phenom II processor with a frequency of 2.6 GHz or a tri-core Athlon II with a frequency of 3 GHz, but with no 元 cache? This allows for clearer segmentation, but significantly complicates the choice for consumers. However, inside they are much more complicated: in each family you can find AMD processors with four, three and two cores (and in 2010 the first six-core processor was added to them). Unlike the Intel line we have already reviewed (Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium), in the assortment of mass AMD processors only two families stand out (not counting the Operton server line) - Phenom II and Athlon II.
