The i5 is inferior silicone to the i7, which is inferior to the i9, which is inferior still to the Xeons. The i5 has less cache, lower clock potential, fewer pci express lanes, and less threads than its R5 counterparts. They're just awful. You'd be better off getting a previous generation i7, which is also a terrible idea. A 7700k literally = an i3 now.
