Conclusion 
Average Bench 65%
Average Bench 61.5%

As a 2017 power-saving segment processor, i5-7260U is powerful enough to handle all daily tasks. With a great memory compatibility, decent clock speed and low TDP, the i5-7260U an excellent choice for ultrabook. With the GT3e Iris Plus 640 graphics, the i5-7260U beats stronger CPUs in its graphics performance, give a huge advantage for ultrabooks with only iGPU. The CPU is 2C/4T, but still comparable to processors made in 2023, like Athlon 7000 series. [Dec '23 kunkun25]

 Best User Rated
Why does UserBenchmark have a bad reputation on reddit?
Marketers operate thousands of reddit accounts. Our benchmarks expose their spiel so they attack our reputation.
Why don’t PC brands endorse UserBenchmark?
Brands make boatloads on flagships like the 4090 and 14900KS. We help users get similar real-world performance for less money.
Why don’t youtubers promote UserBenchmark?
We don't pay youtubers, so they don't praise us. Moreover, our data obstructs youtubers who promote overpriced or inferior products.
Why does UserBenchmark have negative trustpilot reviews?
The 200+ trustpilot reviews are mostly written by virgin marketing accounts. Real users don't give a monkey's about big brands.
Why is UserBenchmark the gold standard for users?
Instead of pursuing brands for sponsorship, we've spent 13 years publishing real-world data for users.
