Hi everyone,
I cannot really choose between these two as I believe the i5 'should' be faster. But I also want to take your opinions as I'm currently don't know what to choose. From the benchmarks I've seen I see that there's no big difference between G3258 and the i5 4460 and G3258 is almost -if not faster- equal to the i3 4130.
I'll get the Gigabyte GA-P81-D3 with any one of those CPUs. I'm not planing to overclock (the Pentium specially). I want to get the best CPU and save money as possible as well. I want the choose wisely from one of those.
Do you recommend me to get the G3258 with a more expensive Motherboard. So it would be at least equal to the i5 or better than the i3?
I usually do heavy multitasking. Playing some games (BF3, BF4), and programming with Visual Studio.
So what do you think will be the wisest choice? I can get any one of them but it would be better if I could save some money to get better other parts. (but of course if it's a huge difference in performance I'd get the highest of them). Hope you got my point of the question, and thanks in advance.
