Although in terms of result the two tags do the same strong indicates the text is important whereas bold doesn't.

Strong is supported by screen readers and search engines while bold is not

@James Yes in general strong is a better choice because not only it makes the text bolder but tells the search engines that content is important. Strong is important for Search Engine Optimization.
