[QUOTE="DarkestRitual, post: 934608, member: 96273"] ... not quite... actually, not even. If you think of it as bandwidth instead of frequency, then sure. Of course the i5 and i7 are smart chips and can reroute energy to increase clock speed per core if all 4 cores aren't needed. The i5 runs at 2.66GHz/core if running all 4 cores, 2.8GHz/core if running 2 cores, and 3.2GHz if running one core. The i7 at 2.88GHz can ratchet up to 3.2 and 3.4GHz accordingly. [/QUOTE]
