AMD A6-3650 usage for solidworks compared to Intel Core i3?

[pcoz165]

I need a CPU just capable of running Solidworks, nothing too special. Very small assemblies. Both are very similar price, and if anyone has those CPU's and solidworks, how does it work? does it work?

I'd say get the A8 and you will have a winner. Cad may use decent graphics that the I3 just can't do.
