Feb 15, 2015 27 0 10,530 Hi fellow forummers, i have this 3 year old cpu just laying around and i have a question to ask, which of these two is the better processor for casual gaming. I know that the pentium uses a newer architecture but it doesnt hurt to ask.

Jun 18, 2014 2,329 3 22,665 Last thing normal haswell CPU will works on your mobo *example i3-4130 refresh haswell *example i3-4160 required bios update :) If you have acer mobo for lga 1155 install CPU and use your i3. Or try sell this acer mobo and i3 on ebay, you earn around 110$. And grab cheap i5 from local microcenter 159$ http://www.microcenter.com/product/432161/Core_i5-4590_33GHz_LGA_1150_Boxed_Processor Sell old pentium 20-25$ total cost for i5-4590 160$ - 110$ -25$ = 25$ Upvote 0 Downvote You must log in or register to reply here.
