is i7 5500u better than dual core significantly ??
since its u series..
or want quad core must get non u series?
and i reliase y40-80 all using ati gpu..
ati..good ar??

ati nowdays not good as those days... well if you want avoid it. get intel with integrated gpu (HD 4600 series for example). but if its just a graphic card ati.. its ok.. better than using ati processor..
i7 U series still dual core. just its single core speed kinda fast compare to i5 and i3.. ULV is for better power consumption and computing using battery will last longer.. so no need bother much about want plug here and there for at least 3 hours
