Processor Intel Core I5 ​​– the most important things at a glance

The processors of the Intel Core iSeries are high-performance CPUs for desktop PCs and laptops. The eighth generation i5 processors (codenamed "Coffee Lake") have been available since October 2017 and offer a significant increase in performance over the previous seventh generation i5 processors ("Kaby Lake"). The key features of the Intel Core i5 processors are:

4 cores and 4 threads

Clock frequency of 2,8 4,0 GHz

8MB cache

max. 95 watts TDP

DDR42400/LPDDR32133 memory support

Intel HD Graphics 630

The new i5 processors are based on Intel's new "Coffee Lake" architecture and are manufactured in 14nm+. The processors of the "Coffee Lake" series are up to 40% faster than the previous models of the "Kaby Lake" series. In addition, they now also support dual channel DDR42400 memory and have an integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 GPU.

The 5th generation Intel Core iXNUMX processors are available in the following models:

Intel Core i58400

Intel Core i58600K

Intel Core i59600K

Intel Core i59400

Intel Core i59400F

The most important differences between the different models are the clock frequency and the TDP. Clock frequency indicates how fast the CPU is, while TDP indicates how much energy the CPU is using. The higher the clock frequency, the faster the CPU is, but it also consumes more energy. The lower frequency models are more energy efficient, but also slower.

In summary, the 5th generation Intel Core i3 processors are faster, more efficient and more powerful than their predecessors. They are suitable for both desktop PCs and laptops and are ideal for demanding tasks such as video editing or XNUMXD rendering.
