All mobile models still use soldered BGA-1356 socket and as with previous generation, those new mobile Core i7 chip also have Hyper-Threading enabled, providing 8 threads for all models. Those new microprocessors do bring some considerable performance increase mainly in multi-threaded applications due to Intel doubling the number of cores from 2 to 4 while maintaining roughly the same price as previous generation.
Contrary to their namesake, those initial chips were still based on the same Kaby Lake microarchitecture as 7th generation. In August 2017 Intel introduced 8th generation mobile Core i7 processors.

ISA: Everything up to AVX2 (SMM, FPU, NX, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, AVX, FMA3, and AVX2). TDP: 35-65 W (with exception for the 7600K). All desktop models use Socket LGA-1151, are quad-core with Hyper-Threading, and have the following common features: While their clock-for-clock performance is identical to their 7th generation counterparts, they are clocked higher which allowed for a slight performance increase. All models incorporate a 600-series integrated graphics processor which is largely identical to their 6th generation 500-series counterparts.ĭesktop 7th generation Core i7 processors were launched in January of 2017. Overall very few minor features were introduced in the 7th Generation Core i7 models, including improved GPU support for 4K playback via native hardware acceleration. As such most models enjoy a modest 100 to 300 MHz clock increase over their previous generation for the same price (Note that clock-for-clock there is no performance improvement over 6th generation Core i7). Intel has traditionally been grouping Core i7 processors into generations based on the microarchitecture they are based on with 1st generation being based on Nehalem in 45 nm with the latest chips based on Skylake manufactured using a 14 nm process.ġst Generation (Nehalem) Main article: Nehalem µarchģrd Generation (Ivy Bridge) Main article: Ivy Bridge Microarchitecture 3 rd generation Intel Core i7 ProcessorsĤth Generation (Haswell) Main article: Haswell Microarchitectureĥth Generation (Broadwell) Main article: Broadwell Microarchitectureħth generation Core i7 processors, models which were introduced by Intel in early 2017, are manufactured on Intel's improved 14 nm process "14nm+" which allowed for higher clock speeds at similar voltage levels. Likewise, Core i7 processors offer the most complete set of features Introduced as the successor to the Core 2 Quad in 2008, the Core i7 represents Intel's high-end performance processors, above both the mainstream consumer performance Core i5 and the entry-level consumer performance Core i3.
