Tight budget. with a low power consumption. low heat . But a better performance. Just choose i3.
Too busy on selecting CPU's huh !! haha
:lol:
Just buy a SSD for the fast response of the software's and fast start up of your system.
I3 is little bit costly dude in this range i can afford quad core or six core processor and now 65w processors are normal to us i3 is also 65w nearly and GPU is good in AMD A series processors and if you want good GPU little bit power is allowed to expense
The i3 takes like 23w for the cpu, I think it will take amd till 2017 till they get to ivy bridge levels. At the moment they are renown for being power hungry on load bit like when intel were releasing p4 power hungry chips in desktops with high clock speed, amd have gone the same route milking out one of the least efficient cpu architectures in bulldozer and then piledriver. The i3 destroys the fx4000 series on gaming. Its widely reknown for desktop market anyway if you want a power efficient chip amd is not even an option.
Intel are 2x better performance per watt then amd at the moment. i3 competes well with the fx6300 as you can see it is about similar performance overall to it i.e. wins and loses similar amount. I guess its upto you what you choose. One thing ivy bridge cpus are is very power efficient, I find it amazing how little the cpus take.
