I wish to buy a laptop and want to know if it's compatible, and if that processor is better than pentium. I'm not tech savy.
Update:I also want to know if a game requires 2.4 ghz to run does a 2.2 ghz computer with turbo boost also allow for function? and is turbo boost automatically enabled? I appreciate all and any help.

Rob, if you want to do any gaming, you must avoid the lowest end hardware.
the i3 is very low end, its basically the dai that failed every single test before it was put into a chip and branded i3.
Core i5 + ATi 7XXX series GPU
Quadcore AMD + ATi GPU
Core i5 + Nvidia GT or GTX anything
Core i7 + ATi 7XXX Series GPU
Core i7 + Nvidia GT or GTX anything
The GPU is the most important part of graphics design and gaming, the cpu only makes a 5-10% performance difference.
Once again, the GPU is 90% of the gaming and graphics design of any computer.
Im glad you didnt just buy it, but instead took the critical first step in your research to find the perfect laptop for all of your needs.
Research and research until you really understand what it is that you need, only then will you be very satisfied and know that you will have the computer you need, that will last you many many years of its productive life.
Google is your friend, if you can think it, Google it!

ASUS G74

rated by performance.
It also depends on the installed graphics/video card chip set as to what games it will run.
For gaming at least get the Intel i5 and even better the i7 processor and a dedicated graphics card chip set. Gaming laptops http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/laptops.to?fam...
that's a tricky question.
