Just grab a PentiumK at this point. Get a Better GPU and then later down the line upgrade to an i5 or i7.

I aint wasting money on an pentium

A Pentium that can achieve higher scores than the i5 you picked lol. OCing is easy and simple, with a 2 core processor that will kick some ass. I dont see why not.

Id rather more cores and newer series...........................

Then PentiumK is Devils Canyon, the i5 you picked is haswell. Lol Devils Canyon is newer than the i5 smart one. xD! And more cores? Dude, most games only leverage 2 cores. Games like battlefield leverage a shit ton, but mantle fixes that instantly. We gave our advice, its take it or leave it my friend. lol.
