Hi,

I would recommmend the fx 6300. This is because I have it and I am very happy with its performance. I also use it for the same purposes as you and I find that it handles the job very well. It is also well priced and since I got a deal on mine- £70, it was the obvious choice.

Also, I think the fx-6300 is stronger in gaming as well when compared with the i3. The i3 3220 is comparable to a cpu such as the AMD fx-4300 rather than the 6300.

Hope this helps!!
