It depends really. If you're looking for a fast but more budget-friendly CPU, the i5 is better. But it lacks some features that the i7 has. Nevertheless, it is still a good, fast CPU. The i7, on the other hand, currently reigns as king and its prices reflect that.

The Intel core i5 and i7 features both hyper threading technology helping it do multitasking and can boost the ghz up to a higher ghz. But the difference between the i5 and i7 is that i5 has two cores and i7 has 4 cores.

What does intel core i3 i5 i7 do and the higher it is will it be better for gaming?

Intel Core i3, i5, and i7 are designations for Intel's series of processors, with i3 being the entry-level, i5 the mid-range, and i7 the higher-end option. Generally, higher numbers indicate better performance, as i5 and i7 processors have more cores, higher clock speeds, and advanced features like Hyper-Threading, which can benefit multitasking and gaming. For gaming, an i5 or i7 is usually preferable, as they can handle more demanding titles and provide smoother performance compared to an i3. However, the overall gaming experience also depends on other components, such as the GPU and RAM.

The i5 targets the mid range with a quad core however, most of the i5's are dual core processors. The i7 is the top end processor which has been labeled the fastest processor in the world. All i7's are quad cores.


Can an Intel i5 replace a core 2 duo p8400?

If you have a compatible motherboard then this will work. But I highly doubt it will be compatible. the problem with replacing the core 2 duo with the newer i5 is the size and pin difference, the core 2 duo is simply smaller than the i5, you would have to buy a new mother board, which in most cases it would be cheaper to just buy a new laptop with the i5 or i7 in it.
