AMD APU Quad Core vs Intel i5 Dual Core
#1
I'm going to build a media center box. I have been looking at the Mac Mini low end i5 dual core one's and I have also been looking at building my own with one of the new AMD APU's in it. Now my question is which one would be faster? I'm going to go with the highest end AMD APU that they just released. Now i know the intergrated graphics/video processing is better on the APU, but I'm more looking at the speed and longivity. I really love the looks of the Mac Mini's and the operating system, but i'm not just going to go with that.

Also if I end up with the AMD APU and want to put some gaming into it how will it do? I know the graphics/video care are built on it and not seperate like an intel would be.

Depends on what you want to do with it. The answer could be neither or one or the other depending on your intended usage.
