Get i3 7100 from paytm instead

It can be done, but the gains are not noticeable in day to day usage also the i3 7100 is more expensive.

i3 7100 is better. the pentium is atleast 10% lower in almost everything and lacks a few core instruction sets that make a difference in non-gaming scenarios. Also has a better onboard GPU.

The price of i3 on paytm was 7600.. and pentium is inflated to 6.5k most places.. the difference is not worth sacrificing for 1000 bucks. At this low end, every 10-15% makes a difference.
