So I have been having troubles for a while and managed to make 2 different computers. One AMD based and one INTEL based which one would fit my requirements best?
Work: Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Prezi & Research
Play: Gaming on new titles (Bf4 & Farcry) & old titles (Mount & Blade Age Of Empires)
Art: Photoshop, Gimp & VideoEditing
Multitasking: Skype, Google & Youtube all at once
Will one of them be able to handle all of these?
