#core i5 laptop

Was checking all the laptop manufacturers if they've released their own Intel Core i5 laptops locally (turns out not everyone has). Check out our round-up of officially released Intel Core i5 laptops in the Philippines. Here's our list (click on the image to view full chart specs): Some are basic Core i5 builds while others are equipped with more powerful graphics cards for gaming. Acer has the most number of Core i5s while I couldn't find one by Dell and HP (just updated it with one from Asus). In a media launch this afternoon, Intel claims to deliver the fastest desktop processor on the planet ever with the introduction of the Core i7 CPU. The Intel Core i7 processors are the newest line to go out of the fab under the Nehalem family (45nm process). All 3 new processors are quad cores with the re-introduction of hyperthreading (HT) to effectively deliver 8 cores. Of course, better speeds always come at a price: Intel Core i7 920 2.66GHz - $284 (~ Php14,200) Intel Core i7 940 2.93GHz - $562 (~ Php28,100) Intel Core i7 965 3.2GHz Extreme Edition - $999 (~ Php49,950) On top of that, the system will only support DDR3 1066MHz which is still a bit expensive today compared to the standard DDR2.
