AMD has had a history of some pretty stellar chips, imo. The fx series just absolutelty sucked and tarnished their reputation for a long time. My Phenom II x6, though? Whew that thing kicked ass.

Intel Pentium D era sucked compared to the Athlon 64 II x2 from what I remember. I had an Athlon 64 3000+ just before the dual core era. Athlon 64 era was great
