Low cost PC

[nagasahitya]

I am planing a low cost PC,using for internet,songs,movies.So i want to use Amd processor.In this tight budget i don't want to use graphics card.so i want to use AMD A4-5300 which is having internal graphics.Now i am in confusion whether i have to go for AMD Athlon II X2 270 Processor or A4-5300.plz suggest which is faster.

x2 270 doesnt have graphics built in so you'll need a discrete card as well with that chip.

in performance wise which is better X2 270 or A4-5300

if you go with amd x270 you have to buy motherboard with integrated graphic, that igp will perform worse than amd 5300, if you could up your budget a little bit, i recommend buy an amd 5400 k, its has 200 MHz higher clock, 7540d (192 stream) vs 7480 d (128 stream) and unlocked multipier for $10 more. and the cpu will be faster than amd x270
Update : the price difference between x270 and 5400k is only $5 and amd 5400k built in newer technology (32nm)than x270 (45nm).
5400k

You could go with a celeron and the integrated HD which can run 1080p video and you can always add a gpu since its faster than the A4 it wont bottleneck
