Hey guys I just need some quick advice, I just got the an MSI Whitebook (barebone) 937-16GA22-009 seen here: http://www.msiwhitebook.com/product_spec.asp?model=MS-16GA
Since this is a barebone I am in need of a CPU and RAM (I already have a SSD) I am stuck between getting an i5-3320 and an i7-3610. I am tempted to go with the i5 for better battery life, but i want to ensure that the i5 wont bottleneck my gt660m. My main goal here is to play BF3 on medium and stable fps. Does anyone know if this would be possible with the i5? or would I have to step up to the i7?
Thanks in advance
