Well thats the AMD option. Obviously a slower CPU but a much better GFX card so gaming performance will be better. Its also worth noting that an X6 1055T can be had for the same money but I think for gaming the faster quad core is better than the slower hex-core.
your thoughts on this,,,,i used to know my pc stuff when buying but that was years ago lol,thanks for your input
