Unlike the i3 line, though, we now see Turbo Boost unlocked, allowing for better efficiency as the processors can idle at a lower clock speed when not in use. Like the i3 line, the i5 also gives us non-modified models, along with low power (T) and overclockable (K) models to choose from. The line is also great at multitasking and processor-intensive tasks such as streaming and content creation. The i5 line really shines if you’re looking to get past 60 FPS in AAA games, or even break into 1440p gaming.
This can be an issue if you’re looking for an energy-efficient solution but still want flexibility. None of the models in the i3 line are unlocked for Turbo Boost so they won’t auto-overclock when under heavy load, which means unless you go for the 8350K and overclock it, you’re stuck with the processor always at one speed. There are low powered (T) and overclockable (K) models available to choose from, along with the non-modified models. There are five models within the i3 line, each with its own niche to fill. The i3 line shines for budget and casual gamers, along with anyone looking to use their computer to do simple tasks such as word processing, web browsing, etc. This will let us see where each line shines so that you can choose which one is best for you. So we’ll outline each processor in both lines, compare the specs, and look at some benchmarks. This can be very confusing if you’re not sure what you’re looking for. Each processor line has several, seemingly similar models.
