Hello, I would like to buy a gaming PC that isn't too expensive, so I am leaning towards AMD and Radeon. But before placing an order, I would like to know how much an AMD A10-7860K Black Edition (3.6 GHz) is equivalent to.
Here is the configuration I would like to buy:
Processor = AMD A10-7860K Black Edition (3.6 GHz) = €116.50
Motherboard = Gigabyte F2A88X-D3HP = €89.80
RAM = DDR3 Ballistix Tactical, 8 GB, 1600 MHz, CAS 8 = €59.90
Graphics card = Gigabyte Radeon RX 460 WindForce OC, 2 GB = €119.90
Hard drive = Western Digital Caviar Blue, 1 TB = €56.80
DVD drive = Cheaper
Power supply = Corsair CX500, 500W = €69.90
Case = Cooler Master N300 = €49.90
OS = Windows 10 = €124.90
PC assembly option = €39.90
TOTAL = €724.00

    Ha okay, so it has absolutely nothing to do with an I5?

      Nothing at all...

      There is "raw" performance and performance in use (especially with software optimization), as in gaming.

      In this case, benchmarks clearly show that at "equivalent" configurations, some low-end Intel processors outperform relatively expensive AMD ones.

      To give you an idea, the most powerful current FX is outperformed by a simple i3 6300 in gaming on the latest recent and "benchmark reference" games... while the FX costs more than the i3. ;-)

      And, in raw performance: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/AMD+A10-7860KvsIntel+Core+i3-6300+%40+3.80GHzvsIntel+Core+i5-6600K+%40+3.50GHz/2722vs2621vs2570

      It is clear that Intel processors perform better on "single thread/core", meaning one core only... and they also perform better on multi-core tasks.

      So... there you go :-)
