I'm not CPU bound at home at all. Still have an i7 for those rare moments of raw file to jpeg export with Lightroom. I do care about performance at work because I'm using it 8 hours a day but I wouldn't min an i5 at Home at all. Don't think that any normal person needs it. Even with a few apps running in the background

No one needs a V8 engine either, but it's nice to be able to tromp on the pedal and feel the g forces every once and a while. And the price difference for higher performance car engines is much more than the small bump in cost from an it to i7.
