Best Intel Based Gaming Motherboard

If your after extreme gaming machine, you want an AMD 64 bit system. They outperform even the fastest Intel has to offer.

What makes the AMD 64 system (specifically the CPE) outperform an intel one? I have been searching, and it seems the fastest AMD you can get it what about 2.5Ghz? How does that compare to a 3.4Ghz pentium 4?

I am not really computer literate, so any help would be appreciated.

When comparing AMD64 to Intel, compare AMD's PR Rating (3500+, 4000+, etc) with Intel's Ghz (e.g. 3400+ is roughly equal to 3.4Ghz).

It's not exactly perfectly accurate, but it's considerably nearer the mark than comparing Mhz Vs Mhz.

AMD chips just do a lot more work per Mhz compared to intel.

Not wishing to seem unwilling to help much, but this topic has been done to death on these forums over the past 4 years or so, so I really can't be arsed to go into any more detail..
