Hi Mody, the Intel® Core i3 processor includes https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/hyper-threading/hyper-threading-technology.html Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology while Intel® Core i5 for desktop systems supports https://www-ssl.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/turbo-boost/turbo-boost-technology.html Intel® Turbo Boost Technology. Intel® Core i5 Mobile and Intel® Core i7 support both aforementioned features.

We can also say that the amount of cache memory in the Intel® Core i7 is greater than Intel® Core i5's, which is in turn greater than Intel® Core i3's.
