Jun 2, 2020 56 0 30 I am building this for my neighbour office friend. He is a Stock Broker. He will use mostly for browsing, MS Office and a software which is used for his broking. He wants it to be fast. Should I buy AMD Athlon 3000G or Intel Pentium G6400? I don't know about the software that he uses for broking. Is the better iGPU in 3000G of any use for him in his software? I think the processor in G6400 is better than the 3000G. Please help. Sort by date Sort by votes

Jan 14, 2006 16,616 1,737 81,240 I could not see intentionally choosing a dual core CPU in almost 2021...for anything; bump the Intel option at least to an i3-10100, costing your friend an extra $60 or so...($125 CPU cost) The 3000G has virtues, I'm sure, but, they are rarely worth listing...and you can bet your bottom dollar it is slower than the above.
