Re: I5 V I7
If you want "the best a man can get" then why are you not considering version 19 (X9)

Re: I5 V I7
Brian, I think he is talking about an i7 CPU vs. an i5CPU -- not VS 17/X7 vs X5/15...

Re: I5 V I7
Go with an i7 computer. My i7 4790K (16 GB) machine is very responsive, but if you go i5 get lots of Ram-32 gig for speed.
I also have a Skylake i7 6700HQ (32 GB) computer which is a fast machine.
