The Intel Core i5-7200U is a dual-core ultra low voltage processor that uses the Kaby Lake architecture. It runs at the base clock speed of 2.5 GHz (2500 KHz) but because of Turbo Boost technology the processing speed increases up to 3.1 GHz (3100 KHz). Aside from Turbo Boost, this SOC also supports Hyper Threading technology to work with up to 4 threads at once.

The SoC (System on a Chip) is manufactured using 14 nm technology and includes a dual channel DDR4 memory controller and Intel HD Graphics 620 graphics card which is clocked at 300 - 1000 MHz. The exact performance of the Intel HD Graphics 620 depends on different factors like Level 3 cache size, memory configuration (DDR3 / DDR4) and maximum clock rate of the specific model but is very similar to the Intel HD Graphics 520 GPU. This indicates that only some less demanding recent games can run fluently in low detail settings using this integrated graphics controller. Moreover, in comparison to Skylake Core i7-6500U that runs at the base clock speed of 2.5 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.1 GHz, the Core i7-7500U offers a 300 MHz improved clock speed.

Additionally, this SOC has 128 kB level 1 cache, 512 kB level 2 cache and 3 MB (3072 MHz) level 3 cache. It has a thermal design power of about 15 watts and supports 64 bit technology and hardware virtualizations such as VT-x and VT-d. This SOC was announced Last August 30, 2016.
