jj463rd Distinguished Apr 9, 2008 1,510 0 19,860 Mar 31, 2011 #3 It depends on the model of i5 processor and in which applications. One the I5-2390T only has 2 CPU cores. http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Core_i5/Intel-Core%20I5-2390T.html Also there are some mobile i5's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Bridge#Mobile_processors Generally the quad core i5's beat AMD's CPU's overall. Here is a comparison between the i5-2500K (best i5 version) and the fastest AMD 6 core CPU http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/203?vs=288 now between the i5-2500K and the 2nd fastest AMD 4 core CPU (the 975 isn't benchmarked there yet-only a little faster) http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/186?vs=288 Upvote 0 Downvote
