You did state that you prefer the AMD chips, and the graphics card can make more of a difference than "Supports OpenGL".
Put the specs of the two cards up also. There may be enough of a difference that you'de give your wife the cpu's to get the card, (Your definitely giving up processing power) but may settle for better display power to work off your AMD you prefer.
I personally would go with the dual core because you can always buy a new card. (I guess that depends on the laptop) but then I'm an Intel guy. Trying to figure what I would do if I had to pick a single Intel cpu vs. the amd dual processor. A tough sell for me because I have your same aversion to the amd's!
The card may make your decision. |
