Hi!
I would like to ask some advice..
I would like to buy(to let someone put together of parts at the shop), but I am confused which procesor is better- AMD or Intel core i3? (AMD for example this one http://arvutikeskus.ee/est/TOOTEKAT...0D-SFM2-BOX-65W-3400-AD5700OKHJBOX-AMD-185014 )
Then also the memory(http://www.arvutikeskus.ee/est/TOOT...DDR3-1866-Mhz-2-x-4GB-9-10-9-15-V-Ares-144797)
I am not going to put all parts here, which I found from one forum, firstly I would just like to hear the commets where and on what I should pay my attenion mostly.
I'm not playing computer games! The maximum I would like to pay is around 500€.
 
GO INTEL!
I'm an AMD Fanboy, but honestly bang for your buck Intel destroys right now.
Youtube has alot of good Piledriver vs 3rd Gen, in most cases an i5 3570k ties or beats the FX 8350.
The i3 and the A10 (aside from video) are different classes. The 3rd gen i3's would probably perform as good or better than the lower end FX (quad) processors.
Ive used Gskill, namely Ares, alot, it works and its priced competitively, but I find it dies fast. They have awesome RMA support though!
My recommendation is Corsair Vengeance LP DDR3 1600 or higher.
 
If you are not gaming what are you doing? If web browsing is the most intense thing you do, then just grab a Phenom II or Athlon II Dual core and call it a day. If you need IPC go intel, but for christ sake, do not support them just because they are faster. If you don't need the power, do not pay for the power.


All of that aside, you came to the wrong site. The textbook answer on this site is GO Intel, AMD sucks. Anything else results in a bunch of arguing and intel fanboys pulling stats out their arse to support the monopoly.
