Hi, I have some questions about these two processors:
https://ark.intel.com/content/www/u...ore-i3-7100u-processor-3m-cache-2-40-ghz.html
ark.intel.com
The i3 is gen 7. It has a base frequency of 2.4GHz. It has 2-core.
The i5 is gen 8. It has a base frequency of 1.6GHz. It has 4-core.
Does that mean when running applications that perform better based on the clock speed, the older i3 is faster than newer i5?
