I have both types of systems, and it really doesn't matter which one. AMD is more focused on price/performance. On the other hand, Intel has long complained that its competitors achieve higher rates because they do overclocking techniques that Intel believes are too risky. Both hardware companies add some specific features to specific processors - but for special needs. There could be better performance too if you go the AMD route for both your CPU/board and video card, since AMD bought ATI.
