Either processor is as good. When it comes to the speed tests to prove who is fastest and you compare AMD or Intel chips of the same speeds to each other the speed calculations are minimal and nowthign you as a person will actually notice. The thing I prefer about Intel is its Thermal Controls, something AMD has lacked (not sure abotu its more recent releases).

I dont think you can really make a bad choice on the processor. On a budget get AMD, cash not an problem get Intel.

The Nano jump is beyond huge, its mamoth. It will lead the way for smaller faster and more quiet components.
