Which Processor

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.gateway2000 (More info?)

Hi, I am looking to buy a new PC, I have a Gateway P3 866 at the
moment and I have always had Intel processors, I am now looking at two
Pc's with identical spec apart from the processor, one has the Intel®
Pentium 4 3.4GHz HT and the other has the AMD Athlon 64 3400
Processor. Can anyone give me their opinion on which one should I go
for. I use my PC for Internet, Quite intensive graphics apps, and
photo and video editing.
Many thanks
Mel..
