And i7 Would have been better but the i5 will work fine for you :) i have a mac pro and my boyfriend plays world of warcraft on it and a few other games and it doesn't have a problem but take from that my mac pro cost me 10 grand and is very well specked out...

i5 is ok plenty for minecraft. Minecraft is more GPU (graphics) demanding.

If you play World of Warcraft I would recommend a i7 3.0ghz or higher and a mid graphics card.

WoW is very CPU demanding.

I have a i7 930 overclock to 3.3ghz and and 5970 ati radeon graphics and my processor bottle necks me in world of warcraft.

Yes, and no. THe i5 is fine, its just that the Graphics chip needs to be good (560m) or better
