Intel Core is a line of mid-to high-end central processing units (CPUs) for consumers, workstations and enthusiasts, marketed by Intel Corporation. These processors moved the current Pentium processors from medium to high level of the time, moving the Pentium to the input level and beating the Celeron series of processors to the low terminals. The identical or more capable versions of Core processors are also sold as Xeon processors for the server and workstation markets.
As of 2017 the current line of Core processors includes the Intel Core i7, Intel Core i5, and Intel Core i3, along with the Intel Core Y series CPU.
Intel Core i7 as a brand name Intel applies to several 64-bit x86-64 desktop and notebook processor families using the Nehalem, Westmere, Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, Broadwell, Skylake and Kaby Lake microarchitectures. The Core i7 brand focuses on high-end businesses and consumer markets for desktops and laptops, and is distinguished from the Core i3 (consumer input), Core i5 (consumer main) and Xeon (server And workstation).
Intel introduced the name of Core i7 with the Bloomfield Quad-core processor based on Nehalem in late 2008. In 2009, new Core i7 models based on the Lynnfield quad-core processor (based on Nehalem) and the processor of four (Based on Nehalem) Core mobile, and models based on the dual-core mobile processor Arrandale (also based on Nehalem) were added in January 2010. The first six-core processor in the core lineup is Nehalem's Gulftown , Which was released on March 16, 2010. Both Core i7 and Extreme Edition are announced as five stars in the Intel Processor Rating.
In each of the first three generations of the brand's microarchitecture, Core i7 has family members who use two different systems-level architectures and therefore two different shots (eg LGA 1156 and LGA 1366 with Nehalem). In each generation, higher performance Core i7 processors use the same socket and QPI architecture as the mid-range Xeon processors of that generation, while the lower performance Core i7 processors use the same socket and PCIe / DMI architecture / FDI as The Core i5.
"Core i7" is a successor to the Intel Core 2 brand. Intel representatives said they wanted the Core i7 moniker to help consumers decide which processor to buy while Intel launches new Nehalem-based products in the future.
