For some reason Intel will always be better than AMD...and the price reflects that. I would stick with Intel out of personal preference. Just like I would grab nVidia over ATI for graphics.
If youre stuck between getting a 2.6 quad core Intel and a 3.0 quad core form AMD, go with the intel...My Opinion...
