Vague question, give us more information.

It depends on what you're doing. Video editing, rendering and 3D modeling? i7.
Gaming and the occasional video editing and rendering? i5.

If you're looking for the best value however, then the i5 personally for me is better.
 
@alpha

well, that does depend on what the OP plans on using it for. not every system is a gaming system.

i have an i7 (albiet an older one) and it suits me perfectly. an i5 would not be sufficient for my needs.

i think quite a bit of clarification is in order (the op needs to list what they want to do with it)
