Answer 2

i5 will be faster in multi-threaded workload, i3 will be faster in single-threaded, assuming the same clock speed and L3 size.

Answer 3

If you think logically, then I would use i3 for simple tasks, it is possible to program and perform a certain task (as dr1v3 put it) requiring a single-threaded load. And i5 is a very great processor for computing a variety of tasks, it is not in vain that both web designers and professional players use it. i5 is considered to be more functional, even the second generation, it will perfectly cope with its tasks, while surpassing the improved i3 and i7. Choose i5 you won't regret it.

Answer 4

should be task-oriented
