Low power laptop models are dual core. They are also used in some nettop PC.

Which i5 is it?

It'd help to know which one of the many i5s you have.

Some Core i5's have 2 cores and 4 threads. Usually those are laptop models.

Rather unfortunate, but many mobile I5s are dual cores.

Newer i5 mobile CPUs are 4 core or even 4 core with hyperthreading.
