Hello, i am going to buy a new laptop after my old one is been stolen and i am confused whether i should get an i3 or 0r i5 processor type as am not very technically aware .
i am not sure whether how i use my computer is heavy multitasking at all,
but i would need a model that i can run Word, Photoshop professional, Skype , Facebook ,have quite many pages open , astrology software on , work on pdfs on and possibly downloading films and streaming music at the same time.. i dont play any online games , if that also helps .
As my budget is not too high, i have almost chosen the two models , the
Dell Inspiron 3520 i5-3210M (the one without usb 3 ports) and the Sony Vaio SVE1512H6EW i3-3110M . they are both very similar and same price but although i prefer the Sony , i think it may be best to get the Dell as it has the I5 processor .
if you can suggest which is the best of the two given how i am going to be using it , i will be sooooo so happy , am looking for days and i still cant make a decision!
Thanks a lot for any ideas , i just dont know how good the i3 is compared with the i5 for the same money and if getting the i5 will really be most suitable for what i need the laptop to do !
