  • What is the difference between a Intel core I7 3770 and a Intel core I3 3240

    I know this is a bit of a newbie question but what's the difference?

    i7-3770 is faster and more expensive. It also has 4 cores, a max clock speed of 3.4Ghz and better graphics.

    i3-3240 is slower and cheaper. It has 2 cores and a max clock speed of 3.4Ghz..
    It does use a bit less power and runs a bit less hot however.

    From the point of view of a home user, they both do exactly the same job. There is nothing the i7 can do that the i3 also can't (but more slowly).
