[QUOTE="ch@ts, post: 1842446, member: 682"] I think the A10 6800k has 2 modules - 4 cores, while the 8350 has 4 modules - 8 cores. So they don't really fall in the same category. About the power draw, yeah, the 8350 consumes 125w at load, but I doubt the OP be hitting peak loads often. The Intel's more powerful and efficient, but considering the OP's usage, he'd be better served by more cores. And since software is getting more multi-threaded, the extra cores would come in handy in the future. He'd also gets all the CPU features like virtualization, unlocked cores etc, which Intel disables on some of it's SKU's. [/QUOTE]
