Hi,
I decided to start this thread since i cannot fully understand the differences between thees two AMD and Intel.
It may seems to be very noobish thread but i cant sleep not knowing that differences.
As for an example i picked up two models for desktops: Intel i7-2600 and AMD FX-8150.
I went through some technical details. Between them two AMD is slightly faster on clock speed, 8 cores vs Intels threads,
memory controllers supports 1866MHz whilst Intel 1333MHz.
AMD 4 x 2MB shared L2 / 8MB shared L3 - Intel 4 x 256kB L2 / 8MB L3
Yet i do not get BUS speed differences (?)
Now according to PassMark from 29th of November 2011 and majority of forumers, i7 shows higher performance.
Can someone explain what is the difference and what makes that difference in general performance ?

Thanks in advance
