Planning to buy a new rig - but in some dilemma.
Want to know whats better than an i3 in its price range only. i3 - 2120 or 2125 ?
As i3 is really only 2 cores, with hyperthreading, which isnt really as good as physical 4 cores still.
So wont the other quads from amd, be better than i3.
I want to use only for general use and surfing - no gaming at all mainly.
So please tell me the options that are better than i3 - in its price range.
Some i guess -
a) 960T - which is a quad core but can be unlocked to 6 cores too by quite high chance
b) Or are AMD phenom II X4 black editions really good - i found that latest FX of amd were not as good as the phenoms. So are the phenoms which are quad cores unlike i3, better than i3
c) If any more too , or other options whic can be unlocked to more cores or more potential, within same range of i3, kindly mention.
Please again note - i will use this pc for general use only and no gaming.
