Warning: naive answer follows. I think AC is more intuitively true than GCH. Also, I believe, AC is more indispensable for mathematics than GCH. For example, there are many equivalent forms of AC (withinwithin ZF) that come up naturally (such, such as the Zorn lemma or the well-ordering principle).
