The main thing is just that I'm looking to replace my 8 year old Dell laptop with a new desktop computer. I've been looking at a couple of systems online that are nearly identical except for 3 things:
- The processors, as listed above
- The RAM: the AMD system has 12GB, the Intel has 16GB - both are upgradeable to 32GB, if I really feel the need
- The price: the Intel system is $100 more
I don't need a screaming machine (I don't do any hardcore gaming or video editing or anything like that), but I do want something that's faster than my current machine (which should not be difficult at all), and with enough power and disk space (these 2 boxes each have 2TB) to last me for at least a few years.
