Phenom II x6 here, bought in 2011 if I remember good, I was choosing between I7 and AMD. Works without sweating and I run three monitors, shitload of browser windows and multitasking all the time. Based on info from win gadgets, it is never under pressure and struggling to do what it takes.
I don't do video editing or only some minimal clip preparation sometimes. Planing to buy a new system next year probably and will go with AMD again.
