Trying to buy a tower for my son and his family for Xmas. My budget is around $400. I'm looking at an HP Intel I3 with a Intel HD graphics built into motherboard, or an HP Intel I3 with a AMD radeon HD 7540D graphics built in. I also found a ASUS with AMD A10-6700 processor with AMD Radeon HD 8670D graphics.

I have heard bad things in the past about AMD, but retailers insist it is the best processor for gaming. His family uses the pc for email, word processing, general business, and gaming. Games like Minecraft and Diablo 3.

Can anyone give me some advice? I don't want to have one built as I did that before and it turned out to be a mess.

Thanks,
