About Hardware Intel Core i7 7700K
Part of the Kaby Lake generation, the Intel Core i7-7700K is a high-end desktop processor released in 2017. It has 4 cores and 8 threads, with a base clock speed of 4.2 GHz and can increase to 4.5 GHz with Turbo Boost.
Built with 14nm fabrication, the i7-7700K has a TDP of 91W, so it requires a good cooling solution, especially in overclocking configurations. As it is a “K” series, this processor has an unlocked multiplier, allowing users to boost the clock speed higher with a motherboard that supports overclocking.
For graphics, the processor comes with Intel HD Graphics 630, which is sufficient for basic display but not optimal for gaming without a discrete graphics card.
In terms of performance, the i7-7700K is still strong enough for gaming and productivity, but compared to modern processors that have more cores and better efficiency, its competitiveness starts to decline, especially in multi-threaded applications.

About Hardware Intel Core 2 Duo E7500
Part of the Wolfdale (Core 2 Duo) architecture, the Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 is a desktop processor released in 2009. It has 2 cores and 2 threads, with a clock speed of 2.93 GHz and an FSB (Front Side Bus) of 1066 MHz.
Built with 45nm fabrication, the E7500 had a TDP of 65W, which was quite efficient for its time. However, since it does not support Hyper-Threading nor Turbo Boost technology, its performance is limited to single-threaded tasks.
In modern usage, the E7500 is already quite behind the curve and less suitable for heavy duty tasks. However, it can still be used for legacy computers running light applications such as browsing, office, and simple media playback.
