I am about to upgrade my Rig from c2d to i5. I have two queries.

Question 1. Is 4th gen i3 is better than 2nd gen i5?! (Read i3 4370 vs i5 2300)

Question 2. With my current budget , I can only afford second gen. I5 , does the 3rd gen i5 make much of a difference than second gen?! If not , I will just take the i5 second gen.

My GPU is 7850 2GB. Btw , I'm considering the upgrade entirely for gaming Purpose and my budget is quite tight (don't ask for it cz I'll probably get an used one locally)

1. Yes, by a small margin

2. They're priced the same, there is no much price difference, if you already have a 1155 mobo, get a 3'd gen i5, if not, get a 1150 mobo and a 4'th gen i5.
