Personally, I consider a game that would require more than 2 ghz to run at optimal performance to be a piece of garbage. The day a 2 ghz is not good enough to play video games is the day I will quit computer gaming. 2 ghz is more than powerfull enough to run a good 3d engine, any engine that would require more than that is crappy work, in my opinion. What's next? Games will require 5 ghz to run?
Personally, I would go with the AMD since it's cheaper. It's doing as good a job as an intel computer, and you'll be able to use that spare money to buy better hardware, or maybe some videogames.
