C2D provides more bang for buck than AMD at the moment so i would definitley go C2D. This means you will need to change your mobo as well.

I've heard this a number of times so I headed over to Tom's Hardware and compared the chip he selected to a similarly priced Intel chip (Conroe E6650 for $15 extra). I didn't count but the cheaper AMD chip won a majority of benchmarks I looked at. Including h.264 which I use alot. Personally they're so close saving the $15 is a no brainer.
