look i3 3220 is around 130$ and the i5 3350p would come around 180$

Core i5-3350P is a particularly interesting option at $180. The P suffix is an indication that Intel disables its HD Graphics engine, but we're perfectly alright with such a decision. If you're buying a gaming processor, you're going to want discrete graphics anyway. Consequently, this CPU ducks in under 70 W.

the core i3 would lack in many games so as to the futureproofing get a core i5




even then u want a core i3 cz of ur budget so u can wait for the haswell series core i3 leaving u an option for future upgrade as ivy bridge will be replace by haswell in the near future



my suggestion would be get a 4th gen haswell i5 4430 for 184$ or wait for the haswell i3...

something that performs similar to the i3 would be the fx6300 from AMD. I would chose it over the i3 as more newer games will support the 6 cores. They arent as powerful per-core as the intels which is why the i3's will be slightly faster in games that only utillize 2 cores, and there are a few of them. But for future games, 4 core or better will start to be a requirement. the 3550p or 4430 are also good options as suggested above, but the 6300 is quite a bit cheaper at around $120-130.

they are pretty close for gaming mostly, the i3 only has an advantage in something like skyrim, which favors intels architecture more, and starcraft 2. I'm not a fanboy of either intel or AMD (although i have an intel cpu), if it were my pc, id take the 6300 over an i3. At the time i bought my i5 i was really playing skyrim a lot, and it was one of the only cpu's that can hit 60fps constantly in that game.
