                               AMD A4-4020 CPU Processor
                                       - Built-in memory controller is very useful.
- 8GB of RAM and integrated graphics will suffice.
- Fast processor memory, great for any task.
- I use two identical bars of 2 GB 1600MHz, so my PC work in turbo mode.
- Good CPU with fast memory! I like it.
Intel Core i3-3220 CPU Processor
                                       - For everyday work on a computer and not very complex tasks, the cache in this processor is enough.
- This one is 22nm so I can use my memory at 1600 which is good.
- I coupled the 3220 with a mid range video card and 4GB of memory. I'm happy with how it works.
- No complaints. I install 32 GB of RAM and the computer flies.
- Limited cache. I would like a little more for such a processor.
