No. Just go with Intel. These topics are a waste of time.

He is right, they seriously are. You might get an AMD fanboy coming in here saying they are better since they have true 4 cores... but that doesnt matter. IMO 4 cores is 4 cores, no matter how you add them up ( 1+1+1+1, 2+2 )
Just get the Q6600.

Not really. I think you don't get what you're paying for. Nvidia, I think you do.

I would consider ATI if it had drivers for Linux/good drivers etc...
Also, now i am not sure you cant easily say it is cheaper and faster, but you could say it has a good/better price to performance ratio.

I've read that the Ati Radeon HD4850 is 20% better than a GeForce 9800GT

It comes rather close. Just a question about Memory Bandwidth, is less better?
