• The main difference between the Intel Core i5 processor, and the Intel Core i7 processor is going to be speed. The i7 is going to perform a bit faster than i5. We have had customers comment that both i5 and i7 are great choices for school. We recommend looking into any programs you may need to download for school and comparing the system requirements to the device. This will ensure you choose the model with the right processor for your needs.
