The intel takes the performance hands down.
Intel has higher single threaded performance compared to AMD, but AMD packs more cheaper cores into their CPUs, reducing costs.
Intel has more raw performance but at a premium.

Intel also, depending what board you get, has a much better upgrade path. AM3+ is a dead socket at this point, where the Z97 boards with the 1150 socket has a much larger upgrade path.
