Hello,

I have two questions:

1) What are all the different Intel Core models? (i5, i7,...)

2) Which one is better? Intel Core or Pentium?

Configuration: Windows 7 - Home Premium Edition
Opera 11

    There are only 3 types of Core i: i3, i5, and i7
    Of course, the fastest are the i7, the i5 for mid-range, and the i3 for entry-level
    As for the Pentium, it's very entry-level...

      After the Celerons are even worse (but calling the Pentiums "i1" isn't bad actually!)

      It would complicate the range too much, you already see how people get lost in it lol.

      Well personally, i1, i3, i5, i7, i9 I don't think that's stupid :)

      With i1 = entry-level, i3 entry, i5 mid-high, i7 high, i9 extreme ;)

    The latest i3 series 2100 has 2 cores and an integrated graphics card: it's good for office work, internet, multimedia.

    AMD does the same with the A4 and A6 with 2 or 4 cores + a much more powerful Radeon HD graphics card: allows playing not too demanding games.
    AMD is cheaper (processor + motherboard), much better on the graphics side.

    The i5 and i7 are for when you need a lot of power: video transcoding, demanding games, professional applications, etc.

    Pentium and Celeron and Core 2 will disappear (replaced by i).

    In my opinion, the vast majority of PCs will be sold with A4, A6, and i3. W7 is still demanding: you shouldn't buy a sluggish PC or else install Linux.

      "allows you to play not too demanding games" so basically we can play Pac-Man :)

      Is an i3 sufficient for Dofus?

    Ok, but one last thing (even if the topic is marked [Resolved]).

    Do the Intel Core i1, i2, i4, i6, and i8 exist? (especially the i4)

      Why would you want it to exist?

      Go work at Intel in the Product Marketing section if you want an i4...

      Then it would be too complex for the product ranges: why not understand that Celeron < Pentium < i3 < i5 < i7 (with the same architecture...) because C < P and 3 < 5 < 7?

      No, it’s a friend who is convinced that his father’s PC has an i4, so I had my doubts, and now I’m sure!

    i1? Never heard of it...

    Well, you have i3, i5, i7, and in the entry-level range, Pentium and Celeron.

    2. Logically, Core. But it all depends on the two models!
