Solution
Differences between those cpus are minor - only frequency and cache.
So for highest performance go with highest frequency/biggest cache.
i3-43xx models are with 4MB cache, i3-41xx models - 3MB cache.
So top choice would be:
  • Intel Core i3-4370 3.80GHz
But check price differences between i3-4370 and i5-4460. i5 would be significantly better (double amount of physical cores).
Did you check cpu support list for your motherboard?

  • Intel Core i3-4370 3.80GHz
    Intel Core i3-4370T 3.30GHz
    Intel Core i3-4360 3.70GHz
    Intel Core i3-4360T 3.20GHz
    Intel Core i3-4350 3.60GHz
    Intel Core i3-4350T 3.10GHz
    Intel Core i3-4340 3.60GHz
    Intel Core i3-4330 3.50GHz
    Intel Core i3-4330T 3.00GHz
    Intel Core i3-4170 3.70GHz
    Intel Core i3-4170T 3.20GHz
    Intel Core i3-4160 3.60GHz
    Intel Core i3-4160T 3.10GHz
    Intel Core i3-4150 3.50GHz
    Intel Core i3-4150T 3.00GHz
    Intel Core i3-4130 3.40GHz
    Intel Core i3-4130T 2.90GHz
 

yes i saw the list, i am looking for expert opinion for a best performance, i bought two 8 gb ddr3 1600 ram and it is not working well with asus h81m-cs so i bought gigabyte h81m-ds2 board and also want to buy a processor go well with the 8gb x 2 = 16 dual channel sticks.
