Hello,

go intel i5 for after effect

 

[Komomu]

the budget for what is $400? The entire computer?

If those are teh 2 choices, I'd go with the intel

well, i think the intel is stronger than the AMD, but i have an AMD FX 8-core and it's a monster (when compared to the $150 i paid), plus, ive been able to use cryengine's sandbox without issues and blender 3d as well. If you are on a tight budget get FX. also you should take in consideration what kind of socket for CPU you have
