When shopping for mobile processors intel had LV and ULV options that blew away AMDs specs when it came to power use. And lower power uses typically means lower heat.
Since we are changing a good amount of our fleet over to mobile Intel will continue to win there.
As for machines that live on the mains I have always been open-minded. AMD put out good chips but they have required a bit more power and cooling.
