Comparing this laptop:

with this one

The Intel is Dual-Core but is faster at 2.5GHz, while the AMD is 2.1 GHz but a Quad-Core.
Otherwise, all specs are the same, besides:
AMD Radeon R8 M350DX Graphics (2GB) vs. Intel HD Graphics 520.

So, which would you choose?

The amd, i can promise you the ULV intel processors arent that fast ,i have the 6200u in my laptop and its a slug.

I would also have to say that the amd gpu is far faster.

AMD GPUs are always faster.
"a slug" compared to what? Is it faster than i5 or AMD 10?

I have had stuttering doing basic tasks with a low voltage dual core intel laptop processor, it lags even opening up tabs in firefox and chrome. The amd processor is a real quad core, thus its superior. Amd usually has better graphics than intel does in laptops hands down. hd 520 can play games at low maybe medium in civ 5 or something at like 30-40 fps. i can promise you that the ULV processors are even outperformed by sandy bridge mobile cpus, my t430 is faster and sure its a dual core hyperthreaded but its not cache limited and power limited plus its clocked way higher thus performs better. Sure the hd 520 is way better than hd3000 but cpu wise ULV sucks.

I have an i5-6200u too, and it work great, from your other post didn't you bough a cheap acer, might be is your laptop.

My work great. sound like you bought a lemon. why don't you return it?

No i didnt buy a cheap acer my laptop cost $800 which is not a budget laptop

If it cost $800 and didn't work right, why didn't you ask for help on the forum or return it?
