sorry to interrupt in between but... just 1 ques.....(i had three proccys to compare ,actually , e7500 vs i3 2100 vs i5 2400)

what about i5 2400 vs i3 2100 ??
both are 3.1 ghz....
i3 having 2 real + 2 virtual cores = 4
and i5 having 4 real cores

so which one is better (please consider other geek things too)

@OP what's your budget? If you're looking for the cheapest one with USB 3.0, SATA III etc. here it is MSI H67MA-E35 (B3).
