I think you mean an AMD A6-3650...
Per AMDs website, it has a TDP of 100 W.
So 90W won't cut it.
120W will get you there, but just.
If you go the i3-2100 route the max TDP of that chipset is 65W so 90W would probably be OK, but again, just.

i'd never use a PSU that has less Watts then the CPU it powers....
get a quad-core with 65W TDP like the A8-3800 or A6-3600

How about an i3 2100T, only 35 watts.

I use a PICO-90 with an i3-2100T, powered by solar.
Works perfectly.

That's interesting. Mind linking the solar kit you use with it and your experiences so far?

I running two systems with a picoPSU-90 and 72W AC adapter. One is a i3-2100 with 1 SSD, 1 2.5" HDD and ODD. The other is a G620 with the same. I have a picoPSU 120 with 60W AC adapter running an H55/i3-540 with 750GB WD Green drive and ODD. I've never seen any of them go over 50W measure via Kill-A-Watt.

fair enough, again, i'd never use a PSU that has less Watts then the CPU TDP it powers....
