amd works better even if the clock speed is lower
no, the clock speed for AMDs is relatively about half that of Intel processors while executing the same number of operations. This means intel needs about double the clock speed to run as well as AMDs, and that simply isn't possible while keeping a low temperature. With the Intel Core 2 Duo, they've fixed this problem, and Core 2s run about the same operations per second as the AMDs with the same clock speeds.
Edit: in fact, Core 2s supposedly wipe the floor with the existing AMDs
