Intel Core i5-7500 Processor (6M Cache, up to 3.80 GHz) [Refurbished]
The Core i5 7500 CPU is a no-frills simple to use a processor that does not support overclocking and considering the difference in performance between the two generations, you can simply reduce every benchmark score by 5% to reach the performance of a Core i5 6500.
This CPU operates at a base frequency of 3.4GHz but boosts up to 3.8GHz when the need arises. Naturally, being a Core i5 it has a total of 4 physical cores and 4-threads with zero hyper threading. The L3 cache is 6MB and it eats around 65W on average which is a good reduction in the power ratings seen with the i5 7600K.
