Every chess engine programmer I have ever spoken (or e-mailed) with has told me
that AMD processors are superior to Intel's when it comes to running their
programs. I am sure they would not say such a thing without performing extensive
testing.

Additionally, when programs are entered in tournaments, you will usually find
that approximately 3/4 of the processors are AMD. I don't think this choice is
made ignorantly....
