Imo, wats the point of getting dual core pentiums when even i3 seems to be getting very very common these days. plus, i3 has an appreciably better perfromance, which will hold out longer for future games, thus decreasing the need for an upgrade.
And @computerboi, if u dont have the GPU yet, i believe that spending 150$ on a GPU for an i3 is much better than spending 110$ on it and then grudging about it in the future. have committed the same mistake myself in the past.
