Core i3 and core i5 processors. What is the difference? What do I choose?
I am planning to buy an HP desktop, all the features are nice as far as I know but it doesn't have the latest i7 processors instead it has the Intel Core i5 quad-core processors.
Well, I am not an electronics guy so I would like to know does it really makes a big difference if I don't go for the i7 processor.
based on the differences between these two processors, is buying i5 going to be a bad idea as compared to i7 considering the performance of the PC.
