    Best upgrade for Athlon II X4 PC w/16GB DDR2-800, 120GB SSD, GT610 GPU?

    Intel for now, value for money seems better. But the likelihood of clearance sales with AMD should be high, if they want to sell any to make room for Ryzen.

    Why isn't AMD on TSMC?

    Wasn't TSMC 16nm used for Xbox One S and PS4 slim/pro as well. But overall TSMC process is likely better because of there experience, but with limited resources it better to avoid WSA payments.

    Cherry Trail experience exceeds expectations

    Did get a HP Stream 7 (Bay Trail quad) for 30€, I think it will be rather nice when I get Windows 10 installed. My Surface RT feels faster in my tasks and it handles updates better. But overall I bought this mainly for 365 and see what it's capable of.

    Smartphone battery life

In my typical browsing, mail, social media, YouTube/Netflix work...

    Intel 540s worth it at $380

    Performance vice it seems to be in between Adata SP550 and OCZ Trion 100. Would pick one of the the other alternatives. http://www.nordichardware.se/test/test-intel-540s-intels-forsta-tlc-baserade-ssd.html/3?/testresultat-nhsb-client
