Which one is better: an Intel i3-3227U or an AMD A8-4555M?

Hardware Hub CPU

Hi. I was looking for a budget Laptop, and I've narrowed it to 2 options: a HP Pavilion with an A8-4555M (with a Radeon HD7600G) and a Dell Inspiron with an i3-3227U (with the integrated graphics). If I want to do music production and some gaming, which one would be the best option? (Both computers have the same amount of RAM and storage)

Thanks for your answer...

the a8 will blow it out of the water when gaming, for pure cpu power they're pretty even

Ok, thanks! :)

What Nick said! The AMD APU will destroy the i3 in gaming because the Intel graphics are shocking. Also the i3 is a little more expensive (I think!)
