There’s not a ton of difference between the U-series Core i5 and Core i7. While bumping up from the Core i3 to the i5 gets you Turbo Boost (the ability to increase clock speed for key tasks), there are no architectural differences between i5 and i7. The base clock speeds on the i7 are faster than the i5 (meaning it’s faster), and you can bump up to a higher clock speed on the i7 with Turbo Boost than the i5. So it’s basically a naming convention, putting the i5 in the mainstream tier and the i7 in the enthusiast tier. Copied from https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/core-i5-vs-i7
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are many different versions of both the Intel Core i5 Family of processors and the Core i7 Family of processors. There are also 10 different generations of each processor family available. The Core i5 Family is, in general, a great multi-purpose processor that can handle many of today's most demanding programs. Today's 10th. Generation Core i5 processors come with 6MB of Cache memory onboard the processor. The Intel Core i7 Family of processors are also capable of handling many of today's most demanding programs, but also deliver 8 to 12MB of Cache Memory onboard the processor. This allows the Core i7 Family of processor the ability to handle more multi-tasking than a comparable Core i5 processor. Check the specific performance of the processor you are shopping for before you select a computing system.
