    Im stuck between 2 computers and want to know which processor is faster,
    the AMD Phenom II 820 Quad-Core Processor 2.8ghz or the Intel Core i3-550 dual core 3.2ghz processor.

    The AMD will be configured with 6gb of ram, and the Intel CPU will be configured with 4gb.

    Which is faster??
