Gaming-wise, the core I5 is the better option because of it's 4 PHYSICAL cores over the pentium's 2 hyperthreaded cores (2 cores/4 threads) for how hyperthreading affects gaming performance watch this video

for how hyperthreading works Click me

for budget build this pentium will stay relevant because of it's performance given it's low price

Get the i5 even though the G4560 is a great budget gaming chip.
