In the top left on the Apple logo. You should be able to hit that and see system properties.

It'll be great, as long as its an i5 or i7 you'll be good. The i3 then you'd wish you had something else.

well, really it comes down to codes and processes that they run. I myself don't know the full "technical" difference.
But the "simple" way to put it between the i models: i3 is for light gaming, light workload (office/facebook/etc.) 2-4 cores sometimes with hyperthreading i5 is gaming, will work for more intense workloads normally just 4 cores i7 basically for intense workloads. For example an i5 on a video that takes 1min to render, you might get it in 50 or 55 seconds. so in the long run it saves time. 4 cores with hyperthreading to fasten workload and have more things running. i9 well...that I don't know much, but if its like the pattern I'd imagine maybe 6 cores with hyperthreading and faster times. Hyperthreading is kind of like a mini core for each core

To put it into car terms ...
i3 processor is a 4 cylinder, i5 is a V6 i7 is a V8
