PC Mag: There is a wealth of difference between Intel Core i5 vs Core i7 CPUs. We break it down and explain what it all means for your next desktop or laptop purchase.
Intel's 12th Gen Alder Lake processors have launched and we have gotten a look at their i5 and i9 models. These chips are gaming monsters. Here's our full review.
With Alder Lake, Intel has delivered one of the most exciting and game-changing CPU releases in a long while, and the Intel i5-12600K CPU is proving to be the new mid-range CPU to beat going forward.
Daily Video Game writes: "The online retailer Amazon is offering up to 34% off on Intel Core i7-9700K and Intel Core i9-10850K processors right now! If you need a new processor, make sure to take advantage of these deals now!"
Really shame on intel for this though,
making a mass marketing campaign to manipulate the masses
no specs that the geeks want its just 5 or 7.
the question i get asked on a weekly basis's is I3, I5 or I7. and its so hard because none compare to their desktop counterparts.
The article isn't really convincing. It basically uses the Intel Marketing data to provide an argument as to why i7 is better than i5, but it doesn't provide any hard data.
From the benchmarks I've seen, the only major difference between the two is hyperthreading, a feature which so few applications use right now that I can't even think of one that does (except for benchmarking programs and compression software).
In terms of games, there's not really much of a difference at all.
