Question

Which PC has better stats/hardware?

by Dec 15, 2015 10:55AM PST

PC 1:
Processor- AMD FX-4100 Quad-Core Processor
AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series

PC 2:
Processor- AMD FX-6300 Six-Core Processor 3.50GHz
AMD Radeon R7 200 Series

Both have same amounts of RAM, Gaming PC's.

Basically I have 2 different PC's. PC 2 is "new"...but I want to know if I should swap out the hardware or whatever. Don't get too technical...laymans terms will suffice Happy thanks.

We passed unity on the CPU way back in say the i5-2500 days. So these seem OK on that point.

Compare the GPUs at GPUBOSS and go with the winner.

Move the HD 7800 to pc2.
That puts your best cpu and gpu in the same box.
