How do I know if I have an Intel Core i5 or i7 processor?

Is there a simple way to determine this in Windows?

I can see my processor number in system properties (E5-2620 v0) but the page on Intel's site doesn't say which type it is. Perhaps it's not even i3/i5/i7 ?

How would a user find this out easily?

Seth, so would a laptop that has an i7 processor in it show in the system properties this or just the number?

for windows 7 users: right click on "computer" icon, select properties. It'll show what type of cpu the system has.

It is Intel Xeon processor, it is different from i5/i7....

you can see the type of your processor by this tool:

it will show the full model
the notebook i'm typing on has an i5 and system info shows:

Processor	Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4310U CPU @ 2.00GHz, 2601 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)
