basically, intel's has been the industry leader for a long time due to lack of competition. AMD has a lower price tag and if you play games that use multiple cores and you overclock your cpu you can get close to intel with an amd. Personally, I prefer to drop a little extra dough to know what i'm getting is good and solid.
To give you some idea I use an i3-3750k with a mid/low graphics card and get about 500 fps in ac (i top it out there, i can hit 800 at times). Vanquish is right (and i asked him a lot of questions when i was building my rig), spend some money on power supply, and just have a processor that can handle your graphics card and you'll be fine.
