What i5 to get?

[Rebel_Justin]

ok so im almost done buying the parts to my gaming build but i cant decide on the processor. i already decided on the intel i5. but now which i5 to get? i wont be overclocking and it will be paired up with a radeon HD 6870


Core i5-3350P = $176
Core i5-3470 = $189
Core i5-3330 = $185
Core i5-3450 = $195

budget is important so which is best?

Do you plan on overclocking? If so non of them will be able to really overclock.

the second one as its the one with the highest clock speed!!

no i dont plan on overclocking and i have been leaning towards the second one

Then I would say either the second or last one but really it doesn't matter if you don't plan on overclocking. A few 100 MHz difference isn't going to really make a noticable difference in real world performance.
