Intel Core i3 vs Core i5

 

Ian Putra Maulana - This time I will discuss about the Processor. For you who do not know what it was Processor, Processor is a tool or a critical component of a computer that is tasked to process all commands from the user.

However, over time, the development of increasingly sophisticated Processor well, call it from the Pentium 4, Dual Core, Core 2 Duo, Celeron. And it's been changed to Core i Series, which is like the Core i3, i5 and i7.

Well, I am keen to discuss which one is better and should be chosen between an Intel Core i3 and Core i5, each entry in the upper middle-class processor. Why I do not discuss the Core i7? You need to know, the Core i7 processor that can be said is already in upscale (high end), so it seems not worth juxtaposed with Core i3 and i5.

For you who are planning to assemble a PC or buy a laptop, might have to consider important aspects like this Processor, which of the types of Core i3 or Core i5 would you take, starting from consideration of the price up to the need.

Equally Having Lightweight Resources

Each of the Intel Core i3 and Core i5 does not require huge resources, and each of the two has the Silicon to withstand the heat, so it will minimize the performance of the heatsink (Processor Fan).

Intel Core i3 and Core i5 Equally Has 4 Core

Core is one of the important parts of a processor, typically the more cores in a processor, the Multi-tasking capabilities of the computer, the better. And both of them have to have 4 cores.

Core i3 Suitable For Everyday Use

With great power supply and it takes a lot of resources, it seems Core i3 suitable for everyday use are mostly just browsing, typing, Edit Photos, Edit Video and Gaming middle class.

Core i5 It has Turbo Boost Technology

Core i5 has a feature called Intel Turbo Boost Technology, which allows users to add Processor speed to penetrate the maximum frequency limit. With the support of 6 MB (4 MB for the Core i3) L3 cache, the Core i5 make better responsiveness than the Core i3.

Core i3 More Efficient Power and Heat

Already absolute terms, the higher the process is done, the greater the heat released. When compared with the Core i5, Core i3 performance in removing heat arguably better, because the processor does not work hard in doing the commands of the user.

Core i5 is recommended for Advance Users

Although it has a slightly higher heat than the Core i3, Core i5, but the ability to process orders slightly more favored, especially for you who use the computer as a work tool with a heavy software like 3D and Animation.

Price Comparison

For about the price, certainly more expensive than the Core i5 i3, therefore, before buying you should first adjust to the needs. To i3 sold Rp 900,000, - s / d Rp 1.800.000, -, As for the Core i5 sold at Rp 1,300,000, - s / d Rp 2.225 million, -

If you want to assemble Computer Games, of course you have to think also the rest of the budget to buy a VGA Card. Because, Processor will not be able to do much in the game if you do not have a VGA card.
conclusion

If you do not really need high performance and everyday use is also not too big, I would suggest to use the Core i3, because both are still together using 4 cores.

However, if you want to have a better performance in doing the job or just playing games, you can choose a Core i5, because the performance is better suited to do the heavy work.

But, do not forget to also skewer with your needs and budget you have. No doubt if you budget directly discharged only to buy one component, namely Processor.

Requires More Power and got Funds? Select Core i7

However, now the Core i7 still be the best among the Core i3 and Core i5. Intel Core i7 have Hyper-Threading, is the ability of processors that can process 2 Thread cores at once. Just info, Core i7 has 8 cores, in contrast to her sister who only has 4 cores, and also has 8 MB of L3 cache.

Intel Core i7 is very suitable for you who have a need for a super large, such as video editing, Rendering, 3D Animation, etc. However, this processor price range in price 3 million.
