Hi,
I want to upgrade my office workstations. I have 20 computers currently (mixed specs) and would like to upgrade them to a more efficient setup. Most of the office stuffs we do are related to web browsing (google chrome being our main browser and firefox as secondary). We don't need much power from a gpu but I am thinking of having a setup that I can maximize the income (since the office working days are only mondays - fridays, i am thinking of having gaming sessions for players on the week ends).
My primary concerns is the power output and efficiency on using chrome (since this hogs a ton of memory) and playability of games.
Now I am stuck with 2 builds, an amd and an intel build along with the power supply concern (generic vs the vs450 from corsair).
Here are the builds:
cpu lga1151: Intel Celeron G3930 2.9 ghz 2-Core
mb lga1151: Gigabyte B250M HD3
ram ddr4: Adata 1x4gb 2400 4gb (AD4U2400J4G17)
ram ddr4: Adata 1x4gb 2400 4gb (AD4U2400J4G17)
cpu fm2: Amd A8 7600 3.1-3.8 Ghz 4-core
mb fm2: MSI A68HM E33 v2
ram ddr3: G.Skill Ripjaws X 2x4gb 2133 8gb CL9 (F3 17000CL9D 8GBXM)
Corsair VS450 80+ White vs generic cpu
Now my questions are:
1. Will the celeron build be able to play games like dota, lol and other moba in low settings?
2. Which is better in terms of chrome surfing usage? My employees usually has 10 - 12 tabs open simultaneously because of the nature of their work.
3. Which will you prefer if you have to decide based on the facts above?
4. Will my workstations benefit much from the vs450 psu or the benefits are too slim to consider using it?
5. Do you have any suggestions to improve the builds that I listed here?
Thanks for reading and for the help.
Note: I already have ssds on my current units so it's not an issue.
EDIT: My budget per unit is around $250 or less.
