If you see the benchmark, i5 is better than i3.
Moreover, cpubenchmark is supposed to run some programs (benchmarks) to test the performance of a CPU. So, in general, you should have a better performance with a i5 than with a i3. In general, i5 procesors have been designed to run more demanding applications than i3. Clockspeed is related to performance but is not the only factor (for instance, if it is also important the physical cores, CPU Cache, etc.) Reason: what you are looking for is better performance. Good old win7 has 8 and it works like a charm. Winddoze 10 will need at least 16 GB cause 8 is not gonna do the job ,and frustrations of having to use Windoze 10 is bad enough, ist become more like a Winfoes 10 :D PC case of course with at least 2 large airfans, trying to geteeven 3,4 or maybe 5 fans( topfan might not fit) ( case will be crowded but cooling is needed.Ĭheck attachment ( gpu_vgamonitor.png) to see old current setup ( monitor and GPU) GeForce® GTX 1050 Ti G1 Gaming 4G ( 4GB ram)Ĭause the same with only 2 GB might be insufficient, current GPU on win7 = 2 GB, so the 4GB might be better is only a few EU expensive
thanks for the reply, 1920x1080 medium to high graphics settings is fine, never gonna use or need it because: You mentioned wanting to keep the system for 6 to 8 years - the extra cores and cache may help a few years from now as well, as hardware demands increase. Ryan333: You may want to check out this article which does some benchmarking and comparison between the i3-8100 and i5-8400 in terms of building a budget-minded PC:įor more CPU-intensive tasks like video encoding and file compression, the i5 will have an advantage with its higher turbo speed, as well as it's two extra physical cores and slightly larger cache.
Otherwise, you'll typically be GPU-constrained - in which case both CPUs should be able to keep up with a mid-range graphics card running at 1920x1080 resolution and medium to high graphics settings.įor more CPU-intensive tasks like video encoding and file compression, the i5 will have an advantage with its higher turbo speed, as well as it's two extra physical cores and slightly larger cache. In situations where you're playing with minimal graphics demands and trying to push high frame rates, the i5 pulls ahead since the CPU will be the bottleneck in these situations. The i3 and i5 will perform very close to each other in many games.
