intel i3 4160 vs i3 4360

[LaJr]

Does paying the difference between the 2 for .1Ghz more and better on board graphic will be worth it? 150.99 vs 117.79.

See http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i3-4360-vs-Intel-Core-i3-4160 - hardly any difference. Depends on the price difference and how wealthy you feel.

Imho if you don't plan to get a discrete graphics card it is worth it, if you plan on buying a separated graphics card it's not.

You'd never notice the difference between the 3.4ghz 4130 and the 3.8ghz 4370. Get whichever is cheapest.

actually you will notice the difference it close to i5 4440 performance on the i3 4370 and i7baby once again i must say cpu boss is a crap website i still dont know why you use it the difference will be a higher minimum framerate which is a very good difference if you ask me the single core performance is a bit better than the i5

I thought the difference between the -41xxs and the -43xxs was just cache size or somthing. There's a -4170 now that has a high clock speed like 3.7 or 3.8, but it's like $120. I'd get whatever is on sale for ~$100. I've got an i3-4360 3.6GHz but I got it at a special price

The differences in the i3 41xx and the i3 43xx are clock speed, l3 cache, and igpu (hd4400 vs hd4600)

GPUBoss is fine.

The "Boss" sites are not that bad. i7 does quote a really bad bench site once in a while but I can't recall the name.

 

[i7Baby]

Its too bad that anandtech isn't comprehensive.

For recent CPU comparison, this is the best I have seen:

Useful if you know how many logical cores that your game/software can really put to good use.
