For most GC games yes. But there will still be many (metroid prime is a good example) that will not run fullspeed all the time with either of those cpus.
G860 is almost as fast as i3 2100 , there is no reason to get i3 2100 over it unless you need Hyper Threading

Hyper Threading is beneficial to me, so I think I'll go with this:

Haha, could of used your input man.

I've found the PC I'm going for, hopefully I'll have ordered it by next weekend Tongue


Man, I'm trying to get a refund for this computer I bought (the one with the Intel Pentium 4 HT) as in his listing he says it is a powerful computer capable of high end gaming (if you insert a dedicated graphics card - which I have) It's so slow, it can barely watch a youtube video without slowing other windows down. He thinks it's down to RAM, and that if I increase it, gaming performance will get a massive boost..
Tell him to go eat some cyanide because that's a massive load of BS.

I've been trying to get across to him that the CPU is massively outdated (They were discontinued 4 years ago) in about 5 messages now, but he keeps coming back with what it could be. I just want a refund so I can get a PC that does what I need it to, not a falsely advertised one.

He's the worst kind of troll: a false advertiser.Angry
People are dishonest, but the buyer is supposed to know what he's buying, and he didn't. He has to take some responsibility for that too.
