'''Core i7''' is a family of high-end performance {{arch|64}} [[x86-64]] [[microprocessor|processors]] designed by [[Intel]] for high-end desktops and laptops. Core i7 was introduced in [[2008]] following the retirement of the {{intel|Core 2 Quad}} family. Core i7 microprocessors are the high-end brand from the {{intel|Core}} family, positioned above both the {{intel|Core i5}} and the {{intel|Core i3}}.

== Overview ==
Introduced as the successor to the {{intel|Core 2 Quad}} in [[2008]], the Core i7 represents Intel's high-end performance processors, above both the mainstream consumer performance {{intel|Core i5}} and the entry-level consumer performance {{intel|Core i3}}. Likewise, Core i7 processors offer the most complete set of features

== Members ==
Intel has traditionally been grouping Core i7 processors into generations based on the [[microarchitecture]] they are based on with 1st generation being based on {{intel|Nehalem}} in [[45 nm]] with the latest chips based on {{intel|Skylake}} manufactured using a [[14 nm process]].

=== 1st Generation (Nehalem) ===
{{main|intel/microarchitectures/nehalem|l1=Nehalem µarch}}[[File:core i7 logo (2008).png|right|150px]]
==== Mobile ====
===== Clarksfield Core =====
The {{intel|Clarksfield|l=core}}-based i7 processors are [[quad-core]] processors. These processors had the [[front-side bus|FSB]] replaced with {{intel|Direct Media Interface}} 1.0. All processors use [[packages/socket-g1|PGA-988]] ([[packages/socket-g1|Socket G1]]) packaging. They all have the following features:
* '''Bus:''' {{intel|DMI}} (2.5 GT/s) interface
* '''TDP:'''  45 W
* '''ISA:''' Everything up to {{x86|SSE4.2}} ({{x86|SMM}}, {{x86|FPU}}, {{x86|NX}}, {{x86|MMX}}, {{x86|SSE}}, {{x86|SSE2}}, {{x86|SSE3}}, {{x86|SSSE3}}, {{x86|SSE4.1}}, and {{x86|SSE4.2}}), and {{intel|TXT}}.
* '''Tech:''' {{intel|EIST}}, {{intel|VT-x}}, {{intel|VT-d}}, {{intel|Hyper-threading}}, and {{intel|TBT}}.

===== Arrandale Core =====
The {{intel|Arrandale|l=core}}-based i7 processors are [[dual-core]] processors. These processors had the [[front-side bus|FSB]] replaced with {{intel|Direct Media Interface}} 1.0 and introduced {{x86|AES}} instructions. These processors use {{packages|Socket-G1}}. They all have the following features:

=== 2nd Generation (Sandy Bridge) ===
{{main|intel/microarchitectures/sandy bridge|l1=Sandy Bridge Microarchitecture}}[[File:core i7 logo (2011).png|right|150px]]

=== Mobile ===
2nd Generation mobile Core i7 processors were based on {{intel|Sandy Bridge|l=arch}}, an entirely new microarchitecture that provided higher performance at higher power efficiency along with {{intel|sandy bridge (client)#Key_changes_from_Westmere|many other improvements and changes|l=arch}}. Those new models also integrate a higher performance GPU onto the same [[die]] as the [[microprocessor]] as well as introduced a new [[SIMD]] {{x86|AVX}} instruction set {{x86|extension}} as well as a number of new technologies. It's also worth pointing out that the ulta-low voltage models are now 1 watt of [[TDP]] less than previous generation while having higher clock speed. All Core i7 has the following features in common:

* '''Chipset [[southbridge|Bus]]:''' DMI 2.0 (5 GT/s)
* '''TDP:''' 17 W, 35 W, 45 W, 55 W
* '''ISA:''' Everything up to {{x86|AVX}} ({{x86|SMM}}, {{x86|FPU}}, {{x86|NX}}, {{x86|MMX}}, {{x86|SSE}}, {{x86|SSE2}}, {{x86|SSE3}}, {{x86|SSSE3}}, {{x86|SSE4.1}}, {{x86|SSE4.2}}, {{x86|AES}}, and {{x86|AVX}}).
* '''Tech:''' {{intel|SpeedStep}} (EIST), {{intel|VT-x}}/{{intel|EPT}}, {{intel|Hyper-threading}}, {{intel|Fast Memory Access|FMA}}, {{intel|Flex Memory}}, {{intel|Identity Protection}}, and {{intel|My WiFi}}
* '''Wireless:''' [[4G]] [[WiMAX]] (except for embedded models)

== 8th Generation (Kaby Lake Refresh) ==
[[File:8th gen core i7 logo.png|right|150px]]
=== Mobile ===
In August [[2017]] Intel introduced 8th generation mobile Core i7 processors. Contrary to their namesake, those initial chips were still based on the same {{intel|Kaby Lake|l=arch}} microarchitecture as 7th generation. Those new microprocessors do bring some considerable performance increase mainly in [[multi-threaded]] applications due to Intel doubling the number of [[physical core|cores]] from [[dual-core|2]] to [[quad-core|4]] while maintaining roughly the same price as previous generation. All mobile models still use soldered {{intel|BGA-1356}} socket and as with previous generation, those new mobile Core i7 chip also have {{intel|Hyper-Threading}} enabled, providing 8 threads for all models.

* '''TDP:''' 15 W
* '''ISA:''' Everything up to AVX2 (SMM, FPU, NX, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AES, AVX, FMA3, and AVX2)
* '''Tech:''' {{intel|SpeedStep}}, {{intel|Speed Shift}}, {{intel|Turbo Boost}} 2.0, {{intel|VT-x}}, {{intel|VT-d}}/{{intel|EPT}}, {{intel|TSX}}, {{intel|Flex Memory}}, {{intel|Smart Response}}, {{intel|My WiFi}}, Software Guard ({{intel|SGX}}), Memory Protection ({{intel|MPX}}), {{intel|OS Guard}}, {{intel|Secure Key}}

It's worth pointing out the those 8th generation models incorporate the {{intel|UHD Graphics 620}} integrated graphics which, other than the new branding, is identical to previous generation's {{intel|HD Graphics 620}} specs-wise.
