Core and Thread Count in Intel i5 Processors
The Intel Core i5 series is a family of processors known for their balance between performance and cost. The i5-7400T, i5-7400, and i5-7500 all feature four cores and four threads, providing a solid foundation for multitasking and everyday computing tasks. However, starting from the i5-8400, the thread and core count increases to six, offering improved performance in multi-threaded applications and more efficient handling of simultaneous tasks. This six-core, six-thread configuration is consistent across the i5-8400, i5-9400, i5-9400F, i5-9500F, i5-9500, i5-9600, and i5-9600K models.

Frequency and Power Consumption in Intel i5 Processors
When it comes to operating frequency, the i5-9600K leads the pack with a base frequency of 3.70 GHz and a maximum turbo frequency of 4.60 GHz. The i5-9600 follows closely with a maximum turbo frequency of 4.60 GHz but a slightly lower base frequency of 3.10 GHz. On the other hand, the i5-7400T operates at a lower base frequency of 2.40 GHz and a maximum turbo frequency of 3.00 GHz, but it stands out in terms of power efficiency. It has a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of just 35 W, significantly lower than the 65 W to 95 W range of the other processors. The i5-9600K, with its higher base and turbo frequencies, has the highest TDP at 95 W.
