Hi, I'm getting the i3 that's at R1 110 +-$110 and the Athlon is at R717 +-$70 special at the online shop where I'm buying.

Now I'm just wondering hoe does the two cpu's really compare with that res and gpu? Is the i3 more efficient (faster) then the Athlon in everyday tasks?

In a way I think the Athlon is a bargain I missed but then again I can upgrade the i3 later with the nuwe architecture.

Gaming benchmarks usually show the res at 1680x1050. How will they compare at 1080p with the best detail that the gpu can support with high antialaising settings?

Thank you!
