AMD disappointing . Their APU for small compact systems is their only advantage over intel .

And alarmingly Intel caught up within 4 years with Broadwell-C and current Skylake...

I think only in AMDK regions AMD is cheap, that's why they always recommend AMD for budget rigs. Come to SG markup gao gao until not competitive against Intel when taking performance into consideration.

Low end discrete graphics are pretty much marked up there too...

Means Nvidia chop carrot even worse, so take the lesser of two evils.

Nah Minecraft will run fine on Radeon....

If you wish you can wait for Lazada flash sale for GTX 950. 4 days back it was selling for just $206 after MasterCard discount on their app.
