Hey everyone.
I know this subject has been beaten to death, but I am just wondering something.
I'm deciding between picking up the older midlevel mini 2011 with the dedicated AMD card with 256mb of DDR5 memory, and the new base 2012 with intel HD 4000. Both will be upgraded to either 8gb or 16gb of memory.
I have read tons of things saying they are both pretty much equal, but if the intel uses shared ram - would putting in 16gb (so it always has enough/max amount of shared ram possible) put it at an advantage over the AMD with only 256mb?
I can't really find any more or recent benchmarks comparing these two minis.
