How much faster, specifically in terms of video editing, would the i3 be? You guys have made it clear that the i3 is better. But by how much would you say compared to the AMD? Sorry for the amount of questions. Lol.

I'm looking to build a PC, like most of you, and I am on a limited budget. So far, these two CPU's look decent. But which one is more powerful?

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Coure TK-57

Intel i3 2130?

Would I need a Windows 7 disc to reformat? The PC never shipped with one. If I can't do that, would system restore do me any help?

I've decided that I'm going to sell my newly-bought PC. Other than saved passwords for Firefox and Chrome, I didn't install or put anything else on it. Obviously, I don't want the person I am selling it to know my passwords. Would it be safe to just delete the passwords in the password managers for the browsers? Or would something else be necessary?

[QUOTE="Hopkins_J"][QUOTE="Tezcatlipoca666"]

Haha. None of the above would be the best option.. that's for sure.

I had an Athlon 64 X2 back in 2005 :O

What would be a better option then? I'm on a budget, and I'm not looking to game on it. Only browsing the web and the occasional video editing.

OK. In that case definitely go for the E-450 since it actually came out this year.. unlike the other two. It will kinda be slow for video editing but yeah, the Athlon 64 wouldn't be much better and would utilize a TON more energy (run hotter as well).

You're buying a pre-built PC right?

OK, thanks. And yea, it'll definitely be pre-built.
