Core i3-7167U Details

Ranking #965 of 2060 in overall performance, the Intel Core i3-7167U reflects a mid-tier mobile processor from the Kaby Lake generation, released in 2017. Though now considered outdated by modern standards, it still holds relevance in entry-level laptops and low-power systems where efficiency and integrated graphics are priorities. As of March 2026, this processor is over eight years old, placing it firmly in the legacy category, but its performance remains competitive in lightweight workloads such as web browsing, office applications, and basic multimedia playback.

Built on Intel’s 14 nm process and the Kaby Lake microarchitecture, the i3-7167U features a dual-core design with four threads, enabled by Hyper-Threading. It runs at a base frequency of 2.8 GHz and supports a single turbo boost up to 3.0 GHz, though this is limited by the 28 W TDP. The processor includes 3 MiB of L3 cache, 0.5 MiB of L2 cache, and a total of 0.125 MiB of L1 cache, split evenly between instruction and data. Memory support includes DDR4-2133, DDR3L-1600, and LPDDR3-1866, with a maximum capacity of 32 GiB and a peak memory bandwidth of 31.79 GiB/s across two channels.

Integrated into the processor is Intel’s Iris Plus Graphics 650, a modest GPU with 48 execution units and a base frequency of 300 MHz, capable of boosting up to 1.0 GHz. It supports up to three displays and can handle light gaming and 4K video playback, though not at high settings. The GPU’s performance is sufficient for basic productivity and casual entertainment but falls short of modern discrete solutions.

In benchmark testing, the Core i3-7167U achieves a Singlecore Score of 5081 (#889 of 2060), a Multicore Score of 4596 (#1093 of 2060), and an Overall Score of 4887 (#965 of 2060). These results place it slightly ahead of older dual-core designs like the Core i5-4440 and Core i5-3470, but behind more recent mobile processors such as the Core i5-7Y57 and Ryzen 5 3500U. Its performance is most comparable to low-end Intel Core i3 and Pentium Gold models from the same era.

The processor supports a wide range of Intel technologies, including AES-NI, AVX2, and Intel Speed Shift, which enables rapid frequency adjustments for power efficiency. It also includes features like Intel VT-x and VT-d for virtualization, and enhanced security functions such as Intel Secure Key and Intel Identity Protection. Despite lacking ECC memory support, it remains suitable for general-purpose computing.

In conclusion, the Core i3-7167U is best suited for budget laptops and ultra-thin devices where power efficiency and cost are paramount. While it cannot compete with modern high-performance CPUs, its integrated graphics and low power consumption make it a viable option for everyday tasks. For users upgrading from older systems, it offers a meaningful performance boost over pre-Kaby Lake processors, though it is no longer ideal for demanding applications or modern software.
