I have created threads about upgrading my PC, but thing is I dunno if I should or not in the first place. I hardly use but that's only because I have a macbook pro which is much quicker(i7, 8GB ectt) compared to my dated (Q6600, 2GB ectt).. My 8800GT died the other day, so now I put 6800 which makes it pretty useless for gaming.

My question is it worth upgrading. I have PS3 and 360 that I game on, but I still wanna upgrade. Shall I just upgrade the RAM? Will that help? It's very slow. Or shall I upgrade the whole thing (i5, 8GB, 660 ti)?

Please any suggestion?

Are these any good? Is the i3 any good for gaming?

Depends what games you want to play, quad cores starting to become a must as 2 core games are becoming a history...
 
the i3 has hyper threading though which gives it 2 more virtual cores. my brother has a g620 for his pc and it plays what he like perfectly.

id say the i3 is still a viable option for a budget cpu
