Performance is the difference.

Intel offers better performance, but they also cost a little more money.

AMD FX series CPUs generally cost a little less but performance is lower. The FX series CPU performance is generally equivalent to Intel's 1st generation Core i5/i7 series, perhaps a little faster. However, Intel's 2nd / 3rd / 4th generation Core i5/i7 CPU provides more performance. There are specific situations where AMD's FX CPUs can do just as well or maybe slightly better than Intel's CPUs, but that is generally limited to video encoding in certain situations.

AMD are generally better price/performance in the low end while Intel are better high end. The Intel i5's are better for gaming than the AMD FX series for gaming but the 8 core FX's are better at rendering/editing. The AMD A series have the best integrated GPU's so are very good for systems without distinct graphics, but not so good for systems with distinct graphics as you pay for an expensive iGPU that won't be used.

amd is there price on there cpu. if amd did not stop working on the fx line there cpu right now might not be the best gaming cpu but they would be the best for entry level gaming systems. intel r and d is so large that there dropping newer cpu cores every 2 years on there tock cycle. (skylank is next year newest cpu core tech). right now intel putting ddr-4 ram on there mb and soon pci 4.0 (pci 4.0 spec was made final this year). the last new amd chipset was 990fx that right now going on two plus years old.
