+Warwagon MVC Posted September 8, 2014 Author MVC Share Posted September 8, 2014 Here is a CPU mark rating between a CPU walmart is currently selling the AMD e2-1800 vs a i3 CPU that was released in 2011 Looks like Walmart wants $400 for a laptop with an e2-1800 and my couch laptop using that i3 from 2011 bought 5/31/212 for $454 with an extended warranty. goretsky 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1210705-are-oems-giving-amd-a-bad-name/page/4/#findComment-596571915 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruckWEB Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Whatever the CPU you use, if you want to give your PC a boost, just add a SSD drive... You'll realize that many time, it's not the CPU fault for the slowdown but the lame a$$ HDD installed.

You'll realize that many time, it's not the CPU fault for the slowdown but the lame a$$ HDD installed. it is when you look in the task manager while doing simple tasks and you see your CPU usage is at 100% I will agree though an SSD is a must have now days. goretsky 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1210705-are-oems-giving-amd-a-bad-name/page/4/#findComment-596571923 Share on other sites More sharing options...
