ok so now I"m looking at an i5. what's more important with the processor: faster processor speed or cache? I'm seeing i5's with a processor speed of 3.1 ghz and with processor cache of 6mb, while I'm also seeing i3's with slightly higher processer speeds of 3.3 but only 3 or 4 mb of cache.
I"m recording audio with minimal added plug ins and effects by the way. not doing much midi stuff. most projects will have 20 or 25 tracks. this pc will only be used for recording, so they'll be minimal other programs on here.
Would the i5's be a better bet despite the slower processor speed?
