Which has better perfomance

[Aarontheman]

I am looking at buying a new PC with the same specs just a different cpu. Which cpu would be better for performance

-AMD A10-8700P APU

-Core i5-6200

 

[CTurbo]

The i5 is way stronger in most tasks, but the A8 has better integrated graphics.

I'd go for the i5 performance wise

 

[greens]

the i5-6200 is far and away a better CPU.
The A10 has better integrated graphics, but is lacking as a CPU.

The i5 is way stronger in most tasks, but the A8 has better integrated graphics.

I know that the a10 has r6 graphics which is alright but it has 1.8Ghz and a quad core
The i5 has "Intel HD Integrated graphics" which sucks but it has a dual core with 2.3

Are you sure I should go with the i5

I am not doubting you I was just double checking

I don't really care about graphics too much

The i5 is your best choice.

 

[CTurbo]

I don't really care about graphics too much

^then you should definitely go with i5.

Is this a laptop?

For better graphics then the AMD
For mildly better cpu power the intel

But having said the intel is faster you will not notice in day to day tasks like email or web browsing.
You might notice that the AMD is better if you are multitasking.
The extra cores pay off
