AMD or Intel?

Well, I'm getting a new computer soon and I have a choice, cheaper with an AMD athalon processor or a more expensive Intel core 2 processor.

Which would you pick?

quad core Q6600 is superior for video encoding and photoshop programmes
basically 30 odd percent faster then most quad cores

however since theirs no real native games to use quad at the moment its kinda like the investment for the future

but literally speaking its worth having a quad core since when 6 cores and 8 core cpus start coming out over the years youd at least have something that can play the latest games
