From the point of view of a consumer that typically uses a PC for surfing the web, checking email, listening to music and watching videos, I consider that the Haswell i3 processors currently represent the best value for money. The i3-4130 has a performance profile that is just 7% below the top nine group leader average yet it only costs half as much. Power users that play intensive 3d games or run video editing, graphics design or CAD packages will benefit from more than two cores and will do well to look elsewhere but for regular users overall responsiveness will remain largely unchanged regardless of how much more is spent on the CPU. (My new value pick is the G3420 which supersedes my recommendation of the i3-4130.) [Sep '13 CPUPro]

Why does UserBenchmark have a bad reputation on reddit? Marketers operate thousands of reddit accounts. Our benchmarks expose their spiel so they attack our reputation. More » Why does UserBenchmark need so many captchas? Our servers must handle malicious traffic because our user-focused service leads to less profit for brands. More » Why don’t youtubers promote UserBenchmark? We don't pay youtubers, so they don't praise us. Moreover, our data obstructs youtubers who promote overpriced or inferior products. More » Why does UserBenchmark have negative trustpilot reviews? The 200+ trustpilot reviews are mostly written by virgin marketing accounts. Real users don't give a monkey's about big brands. More » Why is UserBenchmark the gold standard for users? Instead of pursuing brands for sponsorship, we've spent 15 years publishing real-world data for users. TheBest
