The Intel Core i7 Processor is a top of the line quad-core processor. The games you're referring to are probably referring to dual-core processors. A 1.73 ghz i7 is significantly faster than a 2.4 ghz i3. Don't worry, you're good to go.
a better value for your money would be amd. a better performer will be intel. thats about as much as it goes on on the CPU side of things. for gaming, a i5 is the way to go. the i7 isnt really for gaming. you will want to go to the new builds section and ask for the rest of the parts list.ou could go either way, some of things you like to do, like multitasking and ripping DVDs are performed well by AMD, and some of the things like downloading music are good with intel. Gaming should be a negligible difference whichever way you go, and obviously running MS Word is not going to be difficult on either one.
