Grin wroteThe i3 3220 is a great CPU, Just because it has 2 cores that doesn't mean its bad. Also, the i7 has around an 1% preformance increase over the I5Hoyt wrotethat's what I was wondering XD i5 and i7 are really the only worth getting intel CPUsGrin wroteSorry, I was thinking about a different topic when i posted this, You should keep the 7870, The I3 has a slightly quicker speed at stock speeds, Although the 6300 can be overclocked, But he won't be doing that probably because it's his first build.

I've just got an i3 and I can tell you now that it's not that quick. If I could go back in time, I'd go with a 6300 because you also get better/more features on a motherboard at the same price with AMD.
