advice on i3 and i5

OK, so some options, and would like your opionions

I currently have a tosh sat. 8 gig, win7, i3 17"
and it's fine, about 4 years old ?

So I use my LT for internet, music, DJ'ing, Porn (who said that ) and making video's,

I also want to start making, "4 track videos" that is record my self playing piano, then dub over it me playing guitar, backing track, etc but using Video

I DONT like win10, may have no choice... but here's the options


1> Upgrade cpu from i3 to i5
2> Get a newer i3
3> Get an i5


so with option 1> I have researched and there are some i5 which should fit in the socket, but don't know if extra heat will be an issue, bottlenecks or the bus will be able to handle it

if a NEW laptop, will (for my applications) be worth me going i5 ?
