help i installed the i5 3330, but the Windows 8.1 says it is pentium g2020!
the problem is Windows 8.1 does not recognize the i5 3330. it says that my i5 3330 is my older cpu the pentium 2020. can this harm the performance?

It doesn't recognise as you haven't fully reinstalled Windows when the pentium g2020 was installed. So some of the information stored is mixed.
A reinstallation of Windows will fix this which is recommended.
