Are you going to really use a lot of CPU power? (such as video processing)
Probably not.

If you are just planning to have a fast general-use computer, than
do not worry too much about the CPU, as AMD or Intel and 4 or 6 cores
will not make a real difference to you.
Consider buying a SSD disk for your operating system and your "live" data
plus an additional big traditional disk for your "storage" data.
I assure you that a SSD disk will have much more impact on the speed
of the machine.
