Anyone else use AMD? I'm currently customizing a computer and I don't have enough money for intel and I want to know which AMD Card I should get.

Go for the intel, regardlessly.

My computer:
i7 3770k
EVGA GTX 670 FTW edition
16gb ram, got it while ram was cheap :p
1tb WD hard drive
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

Runs Minecraft we'll, could be better but my computer is so messy...

The minecraft in-game fps is the same as what I was explaining before, it may say 200 or something along those lines but it is basing this assumption on two key factors:
  • Your screen has a fast enough refresh rate to notice this FPS (60 Hz or 30 fps)
  • The human eye can register over this amount. Something that is interesting is not what FPS is there but how much the game 'motion blurs' the graphics which in turn makes frame changes more seamless.
I am not too much of an expert on this sort of thing but Minecraft FPS is not too accurate and I don't think it employs a too high standard of motion blur which makes the FPS seem higher. Therefore, collating our results we find that it is best to have your FPS as high as possible to allow for this lack of motion blur.

Hope this helped :D
What do you mean by "The human eye can register over this amount"? The human eye isn't a camera, it doesn't see in frames per second. I'm not a whiz on this type of stuff either, but for better explanation, Vsauce goes into detail about this in this video:

But I literally CAN'T afford Intel xD Unless there is a way to take the Intel i5 out of my laptop and put it in my new computer. But I get 15-50 fps with this Intel i5. So I'm wondering the preformance of AMD, if there are any AMD users.

Go for an older i5 or an i3.

CPU: i7 Intel, a lot of k's.
Graphics Card: NVidia GT640
RAM: 8 Gigs
Storage: 2 TB internal, 1 TB external

FPS? 90-180, but it varies. I usually have around 10-15 programs open, with multiple windows and tabs in most, which probably makes the computer run slower.
