Evening all,
Im looking at a new build for my uncle. Im going the AMD route and im unsure if to go to the new FM1 socket. It will be a "office" use PC (Music, emails, web browsing and the occasional sky anytime type use) so nothing high end.
I was looking AM3:

or FM1:

With the AM3 I get nearly a 1Ghz higher clock but with added GPU on the FM1.
What do you guys recommend?
Thanks
Pete
