i know that these specs suck but so far ive been doing, ..okay with playing free 2 play steam games. here are my specs:
Intel Pentium 4 3.2 GHz
2 GB DDR2 RAM
AMD Radeon HD 6870 1 GB GDDR5 VRAM
650 W Power Supply
well anyways my new motherboard has an lga 1155 socket for the cpu and I want to get an Intel Core i5 becuase i3 is getting old now and i5 supports quad cores. I just dont have very much money to get it. My question is that do you think I should get the i3 or the i5 and is there an i3 quad core that I don't know about??

i want to upgrade because my processor has a single core cpu & it's not good for gaming. my budget is around 75 to 100 and it doesnt have to come with a heatsink becuase im not going to use the standard on that comes with it.
