Based on my own personal experiences of trying to identify which type of computer processor would best suit my needs in the past and in more recent times, whenever I approached computer sales people who really wanted to provide me with the best answer, I would hear them say => "It depends what you are going to use the PC for!" It is my understanding that those needing a computer for things like graphics and gaming might need a computer which is capable of doing more than just research. To identify an answer for you on my own, I did a GOOGLE search and I entered the search term => "Is an Intel Core i3 computer okay for a college student?" You might want to explore these GOOGLE entries further. The consensus seems to be that an Intel Core i3 processor would be more than adequate; however, some suggest that getting an Intel Core i5 might be better for keeping up with computer related software advances in the future. I have never owned anything but Intel Core i3 laptops and way back in the year 1980 I received my master's degree and I still conduct research for my personal needs on computers of this type and I am more than happy with this Intel Core i3 level of functionality. If it were me, I would try and get a PC with 8 GB memory. Still, if I were you, I would ask as many people as possible who are knowledgeable about computers and tell "them" what types of educational activities you will be using your computer for. Best of luck in your scholarly pursuits!
