[rajkri_11]

Is it worth upgading from i5-2320 to Intel Xeon E3-1230 V1 available for Rs.8,500.00 and how does E3-1230 V1 compare to i5-4440.

Unless you're running apps that are heavily multi-threaded, not really worthwhile.

Thanks Eddy and would i see substantial performance gain going from i5-2320 to i5-4440.

nope, unless you're running benchmarks you won't notice much difference in everyday computing and gaming as well.

Yep.

On jumping from Sandy Bridge to Ivy to Haswell, you should see a small bump in speed in each, this is about 5-10% at max, unless there are special optimizations for the programs you plan to run. It goes without saying that you get the additional bump in iGPU, and some QuickSync bumps as well, and some extension improvments.
