[SOLVED] Which is better: i7-10510u/i5-10210u or i7-1065G7?

Im going to buy a new laptop for school. if found these CPUs and im want to know which is better?
all these CPUS are pair with MX250
is it really true that i7-10510u and i5-10210U are pretty much the same? how does these CPUs compare with Ryzen laptop APUs like Ryzen 5 3500u and ryzen 7 3700u?

The Intel processors are definitely the way to go unless the Ryzen ones are significantly cheaper. The 10210U tops out at 4.2GHz while the 10510U tops out at 4.9GHz. The 10510U also has 2MB more cache, so while they are close, the i7 could be noticeably faster if you do CPU heavy tasks. If you save more than $100 by going with the i5 I'd go with that honestly though.

In terms of performance, it looks like the 1065G7 > 10510U > 10210U (no surprise).
I would worry more about having plenty of memory and fast storage, those will do more to make the laptop 'feel' faster day-to-day than a fast processor.
