pendragon is right here, the performance between a i5 and a i7 ULV is so insanely small that it isn't worth the premium. You should look at the build quality instead.

Before you buy amp and dac.  My thoughts on the M50x  Ultimate Ears Reference monitor review I might have a thing for audio...

My main Headphones and IEMs:  K612 pro, HD 25 and Ultimate Ears Reference Monitor, HD 580 with HD 600 grills

DAC and AMP: RME ADI 2 DAC

Speakers: Genelec 8040, System Audio SA205

Receiver: Denon AVR-1612

Desktop: R7 1700, GTX 1080  RX 580 8GB and other stuff

Laptop: ThinkPad P50: i7 6820HQ, M2000M. ThinkPad T420s: i7 2640M, NVS 4200M

Feel free to pm me if you have a question for me or quote me. If you want to hear what I have to say about something just tag me.

So... i dont know much about the differences myself, but my Dell desktop claims to be an i5 and CPU-Z states it as either an 8 core, or 8 thread, I forget... but my question is, can it even have 8 cores or threads??? Everything I've read here suggests it would have to be an i7...
