As much as we'd like to avoid a repeat conclusion of our other Haswell CPU reviews, it's the same old story - the Core i3-4130 is certainly faster than it's Ivy Bridge predecessors, but not enough to warrant an upgrade. However, the same can't be said...
By Bit-tech.net onThat the fastest processors are currently made by Intel is not really a secret, but what is the best choice when you want to spend up to £ 50, £100 or £150? To answer that question we conducted a megatest of 57 current AMD and Intel CPUs. From two...

By PC Mag onThe latest generation Core i3 is no slouch when it comes to performance, only to fall behind in applications that benefit from dedicated cores (eg 4 cores instead of 2 core with 4 threads). The Core i3-4130 is good to go when it comes to general purpose...
By GoldFries onA few new processors appear this month: two from Intel and one from AMD. We also see moderate price drops from both companies, along with a particularly monumental price reduction on AMD's flagship FX-9590, which still doesn't make our recommended list....

L'architecture Haswell avait déjà démontré des gains intéressants sur Core i5 et i7, ils sont logiquement confirmés sur Core i3. Ils sont même légèrement supérieurs, avec 10,8% en applicatifs et 12,8% en jeux face à Ivy Bridge à 3.4 GHz pour une même...

Intel’s dual-core Core i3-4130 lacks the raw CPU muscle of pricier quad-core parts, but it's still reasonably quick and affordable. If you’re a mainstream PC user or a budget gamer who plans on using a dedicated graphics card, this chip will be a...
