The main reason for that is not even the presumably muuuuuch better performance , but that Skylake will be around for a while which makes it easier for you to upgrade in the future . AMD ' s AM 3 platform is dead , and so is DDR 3 . Try to get the i 56500 CPU because of the better prizeperformance ratio . Also get a second RAM module of the same type in the not too distant future to utilitize dualchannel mode . Cheaper SSD and a cheaper case .
