    There's no such thing as a 'Quad Core' Core i3.
    Core i3's are dual core.
    But you can upgrade if you want to.

    If you could choose between intel and AMD, then yes. Indeed it does, tho intel is horrible for lower budget builds. I agree tho

    You're upgrading from a mobile processor to a desktop processor? How does that happen?
