It will at least put you on an upgrade path so later you can get an i3 or i5 though you may need to up the psu.

Basically the same, but you can fit in a better GPU that should allow a mediumish gaming experience at 1080p with rebates if you want to jump through those hurdles ;)

I wish I could use Linux but I have no understanding to it and it screws up my PC's fans.

Well, then there's that other OS that is not free but it is. Those are $90 that would be much better spent in a hugely better CPU, GPU, or even an SSD.

Post by: TehHank on May 26, 2014, 08:12:54 AM: My Specs as demanded.

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
AMD A4-5300 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics (2CPUs), ~3.4GHz
4GB RAM

Nothing amazing on my side, but a bargain for a decent PC
