I'm not sure to what extent Intel makes flash but it makes up less than 10% of Intel's revenue. I'm pretty sure flash is a much larger percentage of AMD's revenue but I would need some AMD experts to comment.

Good for AMD.

It is about time that AMD gets the recognitions it deserves. Never had a problem with mine....3 years and on. It's now my server. Stable as hell.

30% or more of amd's revenue comes from flash.

Nothing but praise for my AMD systems over the years, but I think I'll be going back to Intel for my next system, just because it's been a while

I thought most of the AMD/Intel fanboys had died down, but this thread shows otherwise.

Both companies make stable systems, but they won't be if you pair them with crap components.

If anything the current Intels would be less stable than AMD because they're more prone to overheating. Also, if you need proof that AMD is designing some good chips, just take a look at Intel's 64-EMT or whatever they labeled them that they ripped straight from AMD (because they can legally).
