About This Product
The Intel Core i7-5700HQ is a 5th generation Broadwell-H mobile processor with 4 cores and 8 threads. It offers a base clock of 2.7 GHz and a boost clock of 3.5 GHz, suitable for general productivity and light content creation tasks. Its integrated graphics can handle casual gaming, but dedicated graphics are required for modern titles. This end-of-life CPU is significantly outclassed by newer generations in both single-core and multi-core performance.
Verdict
“Only consider if acquiring a very cheap, used laptop for basic tasks.”
