These are Dell validated Intel Core cpu for 9020M (MFF)

the one faster than i5 is i7-4785T.

2.2 ghz is little slow to me on my opinion. How about 3.20 ghz? Where I can find 3.2 ghz or faster?

How about 2.90 ghz?

Unfortunately the Micro cooler is too weak to adequately cool higher frequency and higher tdp cpu. You see Dell validates i5-4590, i7-4770/4790 in 9020 tower and sff but not Micro. Micro has a too wimpy heatsink cooler for standard desktop cpu. Consider the Micro as a quasi laptop model. If you really like 9020 might as well switch to tower or sff which are inexpensive now.

PS Micro will boot with standard 84w cpu running above 3 GHz but cpu fan will be noisy loud all the time and cpu temp may be very high all the time, so not practical.

I5-4570T will do for Micro

Processor Base Frequency2.90 GHz

TDP 35w

there are also 35w i3 and Pentium cpu in Haswell family that have base frequency of 3.0+ ghz. i3 and Pentium are lower performance cpu compared to i5/7. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haswell_(microarchitecture)
