An Intel Core i5 processor is a mid-range CPU that falls between the budget-friendly Intel Core i3 and the more expensive Intel Core i7. The “i” in Intel Core i5 stands for Intel’s integrated graphics. The number that follows—in this case, 5—denotes the generation. The most recent generation of Intel Core i5 processors is the 10th generation. The main difference between an Intel Core i5 and an Intel Core i7 processor is speed. Core i7 processors are faster than Core i5 processors. That’s because they have a higher clock speed. Clock speed is measured in gigahertz (GHz). Core i7 processors also have more cache memory than Core i5 processors. Cache memory is a type of memory that the CPU can access more quickly than regular RAM. An Intel Core i5 is equivalent to an AMD Ryzen 5. Both processors have six cores and 12 threads. They also have a similar price point. The Intel Core i5 is a good enough processor for most tasks. It can handle video editing, light gaming, and other demanding tasks. If you want the best possible performance, you should get a Core i7 processor. The best Intel Core i5 processor for gaming is the Intel Core i5-9600K. It has a high clock speed of 3.7 GHz. It also has a good price-to-performance ratio.
