Well, as costs are different depending on where you shop, all in all, for the sytems to make them different, it would be a board, CPU and memory. AMD CPU: £149.17 INTEL CPU: £117.44 AMD Board: £117.44 INTEl Board: £70.44 No price for memory, as they where both bought from different places, but from what I know the INTEL was also cheaper. So if you do the math, the Cheaper Intel setup beat the more expensive AMD setup on the PCMark side, and was only just short on the 3DMark06 score. For me personally, I don't take AMD or INTEL sides. But I will say that performace wise, in price comparison, INTEL won easily...no arguement.
