My Computer info:
Manufacturer- Samsung Electronics
Processor- Intel Core i3-2370M CPU @ 2.40GHz
RAM- 4GB (3.71 GB usable)
System type- 64-bit Operating System (yes I have 64 bit java)
Display- Intel HD Graphics 3000 (I don't know if this is the graphics card or just something else if not please tell me where it says what type of graphics card I have)
I just got this computer and one of my favorite games to play is minecraft and on this computer I only get an average of 5 fps which is really annoying me because the movements in the game are comparable to seeing someone's movements in a strobe light. I have installed optifine and pretty much made everything go as low as it can but that only gets me to 7 fps. I will try anything that is suggested because this laggy movement is really annoying.
Also I think that something is really wrong because on other not powerful computers I have played on still get at least 30-50 fps on high settings (fancy, far, etc)
One weird thing I noticed in my drivers under Processors is that I have 4 of the same drivers active and I don't know if that is relevant to my problem.
Its a laptop and if I need a better graphics card can I have a suggestion for one that would let me run minecraft better but not cost a lot.
Answer
Intel HD graphics is the reason for that low fps. If this is a desktop, you will need to buy a dedicated graphics card. The better it is the more fps but probably still limited by your cpu. If you want to have more fps with the current setup will either have to use the minecraft mod "Optifine" for a slight increase of fps or install a Linux OS like Ubuntu or Mint. On my computer with Intel HD 2000 I got 7-9 fps in Windows 7 and 32-38 fps in Ubuntu.

What is the best processor to be used for a desktop used for engineering and programming purposes?
Day Hay
I am building a desktop that I will use primarily for programming and engineering (lot o' number crunching). More info: the computer will run linux/ubuntu more than likely and money isn't the critical factor, however economic efficiency is important. I was leaning towards an intel core i5 but am interested in opinions. What are the most important factors?
Answer
If money isn't a factor, then I suggest getting this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115079
This is a really good processor too and a lot cheaper.

Intel charges way more than AMD. If you found 2 equally good processors from both of them, the Intel one would cost much more. BTW, this site is trustworthy to buy off of.
