I know this is an age old question but a friend of mine put some doubt in my mind recently.
I've read opposing statements on the Internet about the subject. Some say an i5 is better for Gaming because it doesn't have hyper threading and can overclock generally better.
Others say an i7 will do better when it comes to min frame rate and frame time resulting in a less stuttery experience.
If we forget the cost of those processors, is an i7 really better for Gaming than an i5?
