Hey guys. I'm following the CustoMac Mini buyer's guide, already got the case and HDD. The rest of the parts I'm getting at Micro Center, including the processor.
My dilemma: do I spend the extra $100 for the i5 CPU? I'm already about $90 over my funding, so it would really have to be worth it. I am planning on doing some low-end gaming, like Minecraft, and running a small game server, if that helps. Otherwise I will only be browsing/typing/ listening to music.
Of course I don't want to buy the i3 and regret in in the future, but then again I'm trying to save up for a car...
Thanks for any advice!
