Configurazione di prova e benchmark
Usiamo la stessa configurazione di memoria e di archiviazione su entrambe le piattaforme per normalizzare le tante variabili che possono frapporsi in un test alla pari. Oltre al Core i3 3220 e all'FX-4170, nei nostri test includiamo anche il Core i5 3550. Questo ci offre un riferimento per vedere come queste due soluzioni da 120 euro si misurano con un modello da circa 200 euro.
