AMD vs INTEL - which one is better for multitasking? tryin' to get reliable laptop with good processor for multitasking. Which would be more suitable -intel or AMD?

I agree with P. Rutten, Intel processors in general outperform AMD processors. This holds especially true in mobile processors where heat and power consumption must be balanced with performance. Why do you think you find AMD processors more often in budget laptops.

FYI - I've got an HP with an AMD chip and that sucker runs hot (running Vista). Cooling fan runs all the time. Another HP I recently bought has the Intel chip and it runs significanlt cooler (Win 7). Can't tell if it the chip or OS but all I can report is what I'm experiencing. The guy at Best Buy had the same comment on AMD chips.

If im honest, I will not even consider any laptop with AMD A4 chip inside nor anything from Intel's Centrino or Pentium CPUs.I made a top 10 Notebooks aimed for customers looking in getting as much performance and value for their dollar. I'll post it on the next comment.

This does not have a 8 core processor. Also Amd is good. but i tend to lean towards intel. i can tell you this.. this laptop renders 3d faster than my friends i7. its a good buy.

Dual core. Read the following: http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-A-Series-A6-5350M-Notebook-Processor.89642.0.html Amazon should revise its listing.

It could work for either processor without a doubt. From my understanding, some gamers say that AMD and Nvidia pair better than Intel and Nividia. Now whether that's true or not I don't know. I'm using an Intel i5 with this card and it works wonders! Hope this helps.

Yes. I have not found a game yet that did not work well using the AMD Sempron 145. Too many people get caught up in the "numbers one-up-man-ship" and say that you have to have a X4 core CPU for good gaming. I have both and find no difference during gaming.

Ill be honest with you, the processor is great but i still cant find the way to put it into the new Dual Graphics System (Graphics Card +Gpu from APU) but i got 2 r9 270x in crossfire so i dont need it very much. But answering your question about if getting or not an A10 APU ill tell you, go for a FX instead, because if you got a graphics card dedicated you wont need the Apu GPU at all...

I assume its all about what u need it for, im currently running that matherboard with 1600's and i have not expierienced any issues, however i only use mine for personal internet and gaming, as you may already know games these days are more graphics card demanding then cpu...that being said in my opinion faster is better but i am still learning the pc world myself

Is not an i7, but is good enoughWindows 7 rate this cpu with 7.6 over 7.9However it's better than an amd solution

I've loved my 8460p. The only thing I regret is not getting the the one with the separate AMD graphics card (I have the integrated Intel 3000 graphics). I think the separate graphics card would make a huge difference in any games/Minecraft. Other than that, it's a top notch laptop that has really done extremely well. I've used mine on average 6-10 hours a day for about 3 years now and haven't had any hiccups.

It depends on what you will be using it for. The A10-7850K is more advanced by having 12 cores, This is good for gaming and allows the ability for gaming without the need of a good graphics card. I bought the AMD Quad-Core A8-Series APU for an office computer and it is fast.

It's not a traditional CPU, instead, it's what's called an APU, or Accelerated Processing Unit. From AMD's website, "AMD's A-Series processors combine dual-core and quad-core CPUs and AMD Radeon™ Graphics on a single power-efficient chip to enable premium performance and low power consumption." This laptop has a quad core processor.

Yes, I have been very pleased with this processor. The only thing to remember is that this unit relies on your RAM for anything gaming related. I paired mine with 8 Gb's of 1600mhz RAM and can run most games on high to max. Photoshop and even video editing should be breeze. Hope that helps your decision. Make sure to take a look at the A8-6600k too! it is the next gen of this unit and its on sale right now. ;)

It's just an Athlon processor at that point. If you aren't wanting to use the gpu I would get either an FX chip or Intel chip depending on your preferences. This should still work but it's not as good as either of those. The AMD APU's are really designed to be a cheap solution for an integrated chipset setup.

SU7300 is way better since it supports Intel Virtualization and has an extra 1 MB L2 Cache. Performance depends a lot on L2 Cache. I would go with SU7300 for an extra $50

frequency is not important as knowing the class of processors. Sub $300 AMD E series / Intel Celerons = for browsing internet only Sub $400 AMD A4 series dual core/ Intel Pentiums Haswell= browsing, streaming shows $400 and above AMD A6 series QuadCore/ Intel i3 Haswell = everything else except, Video editing AMD A8 and A10 QuadCore/ Intel i5 Haswell= builds upon A6 processor, gaming, video editing, etc.

The A8 is a much more powerful processor. The CPUs on this comparison may not be the same as the Celeron you're speaking of and this A8 CPU, but they still can apply to this: http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/386/AMD_A8-Series_A8-3850_vs_Intel_Celeron_433_MHz_(BX80524P433128).htmlThe AMD A-series processors also have built in graphics, which I'm pretty sure the Celeron lacks. So it's basically a decent graphics card and a processor all in one package. Hope this helped some!TL;DR: The A8 is better
