Technically speaking, you won’t notice much difference between two successive generation chips from Intel. The micro-architecture being the main difference between processors of different generations. The concept of generations arose primarily after the Core i series.

Pentium M and Celeron M for mobile devicesĪs might be clear from the above table, the ‘i’ series is indeed the latest addition to the Intel’s processor family.

So, here are all the major chips that Intel has released over the years. So there began the naming convention i3, i5, and i7. Sooner, Intel realized that the pace at which it is innovating (more on that later) it will soon run out of names. Intel has been naming its processors differently over the years. Therefore, do not have an inch of a doubt that i3 is obsolete and i7 is the newest kid. Intel is running all these processor lines simultaneously and there have been as many upgrades with i3 as there have been for i7. Most people think that i3, i5, and i7 correspond to the different generations of computer chips. The Beginning of the Entire Misconception

How come the people who are selling computers not know the basic difference between processor generations? So I decided to do a little digging on my own, and here’s everything I found out that was worth finding. So – back to the story – I came home irate.

Even if you aren’t building any, you might still want to read it – a little knowledge won’t overstress your brain.

You might want to read this article if you are building your own dedicated server or just a computer. I mean, apart from speed, there has to be some other selling proposition. Not to mention, when I asked them what difference the generations made, 90% stores said that “advanced gen chips are faster”.

All stores that I visited pitched me Intel’s 10th gen processor, which they so righteously boasted was faster than the previous-gen chips. Just last week I went to a computer store to inquire what’s latest in the market and came back unsatisfied. Put simply, I am researching the computer market a lot these days, especially processors. I am in the market for laptops while also contemplating whether I should assemble a desktop instead.
