Much more l2 cache 4 MB vs 0.5 MB 8x more l2 cache; more data can be stored in the l2 cache for quick access later
Higher clock speed 3.8 GHz vs 3.4 GHz More than 10% higher clock speed
More cores 4 vs 2 Twice as many cores; run more applications at once
Much more l2 cache per core 1 MB/core vs 0.25 MB/core 4x more l2 cache per core
Significantly better overclocked clock speed (Air) 4.79 GHz vs 3.49 GHz More than 35% better overclocked clock speed (Air)
Better performance per dollar 7.56 pt/$ vs 6.3 pt/$ Around 20% better performance per dollar
Better overclocked clock speed (Water) 4.39 GHz vs 3.47 GHz More than 25% better overclocked clock speed (Water)

However, the Athlon is cheaper than the i3, and you can OC it a lot.
i3, but get the fx 6300 if you want to play games that don't need single core performance or multi core performance.
So which is better for gaming
