can someone explain this to me? these processors kinda confuse me

[Daniel91]

whats the budget of the build?

 

I got the i5 4460 here and it a great CPU for everyday use and def good for gaming of course

 

i3 if the general use is just basic web surfing/video watching

 

I got the parts from Video Pro and the cost of the system is only 778SGD without the GPU

 

i5 4460

MSI H97M-G43

8GB Kingston HyperX Fury Black 4GBx2

WD 1TB Blue

CoolerMaster N400

CoolerMaster V550 Gold PSU

this is a build for a pri 3 student his dad wants him to do comprehension and math revisions on the pc, he also requested that he'd be able to play his BF 2 and some mmorpg games like SMITE

 

and his budget is about SGD$800 I got him a sapphire R9 270 $199.00 (xmas sale)so he's got a budget of around $600

 

I havent used a i3 so not too sure of it's performance so I'm stuck with a headache of i5 4460or i3 4150 diffrence of $25.00

The i5 4460 is a way better processor, especially for such a small difference in price.

25$ is WELL worth it mate.

still significantly improves performance.

its a 10-15% increase in tasks that are HEAVILY multithreaded, such as renderign. not something id call significant, but definitively nice to have

you're funny...benchmarks across the internet demonstrate a good 30 to 35% imporvement in such scenarios..but okay!

ive tested it out of curiosity with both a 4770k and a 5820k. the 6 core had a 15% boost, the 4core had a 10% boost. i got those numbers. now please show me the benchmarks that say that

the results of the i5 being at a 2.9% lower clockspeed you can take 2.9% out of those difference of course...but it's sill a little more than 30% improvement...and the test that i've done myself are directly in line with those results as well.

...and the test done by the other LTT forum members confirm this just look at the cinebench results from the pinned thread about this..

34.4% difference in multi-threaded video rendering...this is cinebench R15 results posted by LTT forum members.

hmmm... interesting. ill have to check my results and rerun the tests... thanks for correcting me
