I'm thinking of "upgrading" my HTPC from a AMD A6-3620 system (which was a desktop tower I bought on the cheap and repurposed into an HTPC) to an Intel NUC that runs on the Celeron N2820.
Any insight on how the N2820 will perform versus the A6-3620? According to PassMark, the CPU Mark score for the A6-3620 is around 2,905. There's no CPU Mark score for the N2820, but the comparable N2810 scores a 959.
The obvious upside to the N2820 build is the smaller form factor and the reduced power. However, I do run MCEBuddy on the A6-3620 to convert recorded tv files (.WTV) to MP4 files to view on other devices on the network and I'm wondering if the N2820 can handle that sort of task. Any insight on how the N2820 will perform for my needs?
