is it worth paying the extra $100 to get the i5-3339Y versus the i3-3229Y?

With 4GBs of RAM on a convertible laptop used as a secondary machine and used mainly for internet research and word processing - I'm an academic in the humanities - with some multitasking (which in this case mostly means several windows and programs open at once) is the i5 worth the extra spend or should I save it for the primary machine? Note that this is less about the spend in absolute terms and more about whether the spend is worth what I can expect to get for it. Thanks!

I think not too worthwhile though 'cause both CPUs has very very low freq and therefore there isn't too much a difference. Save more money for the primary machine.
