Which laptop with processor i7-7700HQ or i7-8550U I should buy?

In regard to I cannot understand, why these processes are almost equals. It is very simple, the i7-8550U is newer and Intel decided to put 4 cores in the new consumer line instead of the dual-core that the U line used to have. – Yisroel Tech Aug 15 '18 at 2:06
You did most of the heavy lifting yourself, the i7-8550 U is the better performing processor. In addition, U T S series processors are usually tuned for power savings over performance, so that means that the i7-8550 U is more power efficient. – Bennett Yeo Aug 15 '18 at 19:24
The 8th generation processors from Intel have finally been able to cram more cores into a power efficient package, though if you're looking for pure performance, you might want one of the 6 core H series CPUs. However, it would be easier for us to provide a good recommendation if you could give us a detailed workload (what compiler? what kind of projects?) and your budget, which would allow us to find a balanced system, perhaps cheaper or faster than you expected. Since laptops usually have soldered on CPUs these days... – timuzhti Aug 18 '18 at 13:19
It's usually easier just to group everything in one recommendation request. Be sure to include everything you're likely to want to do. – timuzhti Aug 18 '18 at 13:20
