cpu for new system

[.valkyrie.]

hey guys
i'm planing to upgrade my ddr2 2007 system

here are my option
g4900 and a up to date system
another way for the same price is to buy a 2nd hand
i5 either 2400 or 3450

price for 3450 and g4900 are the same while 2400 is 13_14% lower

by chosing those i5s i can get a mobo for 1/3 price of g4900

so , does it worth buying g4900 or i should go with i5? whats the proc and cons of brand new mobo? if i chose those i5 , which chipsets are the best for it?
