The Core i7 processor should be fractionally faster, but you won't be able to tell the difference unless you are doing something that is really processor-intensiveThe comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.1
