intel/core i7

The Intel Core i7 is a family of 64-bit, x86-64 processors designed by Intel for high-end desktops and laptops. Thee Core i7 family uses the Bloomfield, Nehalem, Westmere, Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge and Haswell microarchitectures implementations. The family was first launched in late 2008^[1]. The Core i7, along with the core i3 and i5, was designed as the successor to the Intel Core 2 brand.
