Why is there even any debate between pic related? i7 is obviously faster, more powerful, and better designed, /g/.

you dont buy a nascar car to drive to work (i7 for gaming/spreadsheets)
you dont race in nascar with a vw jetta (i5 for video rendering/compression)

Performance cost
>i7 gives lets say a performance of 10 but costs 500$
>i5 gives a performance of 9 but costs 200$

Gee anon can you tell me all the games that take advantage of hyperthreading?
>>
>>54427872
that's inaccurate though unless your mind is only on gaming (which Im betting it is)

i7 is great for anything that is highly threaded and can benefit from more cores.

a 5820k with 6 cores, 12 threads is going to DESTROY an i5-6600k in encoding or rendering. I mean cleanly destroy by 50%+

Now in gaming, obviously the i5 is going to give you 90% of the performance of an i7 while being cheaper.

But not everyone is a gaymer fag.

That's what he's saying. It would be useless to have it when it would go to waste. Just like it would be dumb to have an i5 for video rendering.
