Processor choice??

BunnyJ · 09 Apr 2015

Thanks for the advice.. my motherboard only support up to 1866 but I'll get 8GB of that with the processor.

I'm torn between the following:
1. AMD A10-6800K
2. Intel I3-4150

The Intel is a better chip overall but would it be worth the effort to replace the motherboard to get the Intel??
TIA

Pricewise, the AMD is your better buy. And I just recently read that if you can tell the difference in the speed between the two, you're a much better man than the author. :)

I really do like the motherboard.. that's why I really don't want to get a new one.
