The Difference Between An Intel Core I3, I5 And I7 by alviniconis(m): 4:22pm On May 09, 2015 |
Hello everyone, i thought of sharing this info with you guys, Hopefully this gives you some insight for your next CPU selection. Intel Core i3, Core i5, and Core i7 CPUs have been around for over a year now, but some buyers still get stumped whenever they attempt to build their own systems and are forced to choose among the three. With the more recent Sandy Bridge architecture now on store shelves, we expect the latest wave of buyers to ask the same kind of questions. Core i3, Core i5, Core i7 — the difference in a nutshell. If you want a plain and simple answer, then generally speaking, Core i7s are better than Core i5s, which are in turn better than Core i3s. Nope, Core i7 does not have seven cores nor does Core i3 have three cores. The numbers are simply indicative of their relative processing powers. Their relative levels of processing power are also signified by their Intel Processor Star Ratings, which are based on a collection of criteria involving their number of cores, clock speed (in GHz), size of cache, as well as some new Intel technologies like Turbo Boost and Hyper-Threading. Core i3s are rated with three stars, i5s have four stars, and i7s have five. If you’re wondering why the ratings start with three, well they actually don’t. The entry-level Intel CPUs — Celeron and Pentium — get one and two stars respectively. Note: Core processors can be grouped in terms of their target devices, i.e. source: http://www.iconis.info/2015/05/the-difference-between-intel-core-i3-i5.html |
