(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm going to be buying my first laptop and I've only ever dealt with Intel computers. Whats the difference in performance between AMD and Intel? AMD laptops seem to be cheaper than Intel. I'm looking for something equivalent to an i3 or i5. I prefer i5 because of the whole battery saving thing. I'm not planning on gaming with my laptop, the biggest process I will be using is watching HD movies but thats not my main concern.

I prefer Intel, they are just better for the extra few bucks.
