The obvious differences are the Megapixels and the Expeed processor version.
The latter MAY make the speed of focus and operation faster...but these things are often very subjective!!
The biggest issue is the 14v24 megapixels.
Whilst more pixels suggest a more detailed picture....it doesn't always work out. High pixel sensors really need more care when shooting as their extra detail is easily lost with camera movement. Put them both on a steady tripod and you would probably see an image improve,ent with 24mp. But hand held, unless you double your shutter speed from normal speed (eg use 1/250 instead of 1/125) you are unlikely to see any difference between the two cameras.
Personally, the d3100, if the price is right, would be my choice.
Hope that helps.
