I am trying to decide between two CPU's: i3 10100 4 core 8 thread @3.60Ghz vs i5 11400 6 core 12 tread @2.60 Ghz

The i5 has a higher single core performance but the i3 has a higher clock speed.

I record directly into my interface and don't use any buffer below 256

Some ezdrummer 2 application and Guitar vst's. Ez Bass, too

Opinions?

Take the i5.   There's no reason to use an i3 unless you are only running a workstation for desktop publishing or paperwork.
