8th gen i5 system vs. 7th gen i7 system
Lately I have not been able to get any Lenovo 8th gen i7 PCs from my distributor. The only i7 model available at a decent price right now has a 7th gen i7-7700T with a Passmark CPU speed rating of 9255.
But they do have a model in stock with an 8th gen i5-8400 speed rated at 11624.
Both come with an SSD and Win10 Pro. For my customers general office use, can I safely assume that this i5 system will run faster overall than the i7--due to the 25% faster CPU speed? If not, why not? TIA

If you can wait a bit, see if Lenovo comes out with an i7
Good luck.
