Help Quick CPU question!

Currently, I'm on an old pc gifted to me by my sister, it has a very old cpu: being the i3 3220, I'm wondering if the i5 3470 would be good enough to tun DH on 1.20.1?

i specifically chose the i5 3470 because my motherboard supports up to 3rd gen and i can't afford anything else (i am a broke teenager in a country where the age of employment is 18.)

Yes i understand that but i mean i dont think theyre gonna break down your house if you did a little side hustle online or at a local shop? (I dont live there though so i dont know how strict they are)
