Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products.

Key features and benefits:
AMAZING PLATFORM PERFORMANCE AND RESPONSIVENESS.
Intel’s advanced 14nm+ process technology is the foundation for the entire 7th Gen Intel Core processor family, delivering performance improvements over previous-generation processors. For the enthusiast, choosing unlocked2 notebook and desktop processors provides the opportunity to tune performance to its fullest potential in order to get the most out of games and virtual reality experiences, with performance headroom left over for live broadcasting.
On Intel Core i5 and i7 processors with Intel® Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology3, performance and power are dynamically controlled boosting performance precisely when it is needed, and saving energy when it counts. Intel® Speed Shift Technology3 allows control of processor performance states (or P states) to be managed by the hardware instead of the OS. The result is the system can get to peak turbo frequencies much faster, allowing tasks to complete quicker, and then return to idle faster. In addition, Intel® Ready Mode Technology3 keeps PCs on and updated while retaining fast responsiveness.
With Intel® Optane™ Memory Ready motherboards and systems, one can add Intel Optane memory purchased aftermarket for a snappy PC experience with short boot times and fast application launches, and to help accelerate day-to-day compute tasks.
RICH, IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES.
Entertainment, media creation and gaming reach new levels with the newest generation of Intel processors combined with Intel Iris™ Plus and Intel® HD Graphics. Thanks to our improved media engine with power-efficient VP9 and HEVC 10-bit hardware acceleration, 4K viewing and content creation are improved versus previous generation processors.4 Users can multi-stream HD and Ultra HD video content and enjoy Netflix* premium movies and TV shows in vivid 4K UHD. Users can enjoy a fluid and immersive gaming experience with Intel Iris Plus graphics at 1080p. Intel 7Th Gen Intel Core processors with Intel Iris Plus graphics has tremendous performance.
3D Graphics Performance alone is 6.6x better than a 5-year-old desktop PC5 and high-performance 7th
Gen Intel Core H-series and S-series processors deliver amazing VR experiences through incredible CPU performance providing balanced specs that AAA games demand in order to maximize play. Intel HD graphics in 7th Gen Intel Core platforms enhance gameplay at 720p.
SIMPLICITY AND CONVENIENCE.
PCs with 7th Gen Intel Core processors are expected to increasingly include touch, voice and stylus inputs, helping users to simplify their interactions and unleash their creativity. Using new features like voice control and facial recognition, users can log in hassle-free with Windows* Hello6 and True Key™ by Intel, enabled by the 7th Gen Intel Core i-series and m3-series processors.

EXTENDED BATTERY LIFE.
Intel continues to drive power efficiency improvements at the processor and platform level to increase battery life and enable even smaller and thinner4 devices. Dedicated hardware acceleration reduces power consumption dramatically. With the Y-series processor family, 2 in 1s are reimagined, enabling thin and fanless designs for ultra-mobility. On U-series processors, enhanced productivity and creativity are possible in increasingly slim form factors without sacrificing battery life – in fact, new 7th Gen Intel Core U-series processors now provide up to 10 hours5 of battery life for the whole workday. Modern Standby ensures laptops resume with data ready in a flash.
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE.
This generation of Intel’s best-performing processors, from 4.5 – 91W, provides a range of form factor options from the thinnest detachables to enthusiast class performance desktops and more.
I/O SUPPORT.
A range of I/O solutions are available with the 7th Gen Intel Core processor family creating multiple ways to interact with new devices:
Thunderbolt™ 3. Doubling the bandwidth of the previous generation, Thunderbolt 3 transfers data 8x faster than USB 3.0.6 Plus, for the first time, you can run data, video and power over a single cable. Notebooks with the versatile Thunderbolt 3 technology, the USB-C that does it all, provide an incredible I/O experience. A single cable conveniently supports up to 40 Gbps transfer speeds, two 4K 60 Hz displays, system charging up to 100W, external graphics, and Thunderbolt networking to bolster productivity.
Gen 3 PCIe Support. 7th Gen Intel Core processors offer Gen 3 PCIe support for higher data transfer rates of 8 GT/s versus 5 GT/s with PCIe Gen 2. The latest Intel® Rapid Storage Technology supports NVMe PCIe x4 solid state drives and is capable of utilizing Gen 3 PCIe Speeds. DT systems will offer 15 percent more I/O capability3 over the previous generation.
SECURITY.
7th Gen Intel Core vPro processors include a variety of hardened security1 features built into the silicon. Intel® Authenticate Technology provides a robust multifactor solution that is protected in hardware, reducing users’ exposure to identity theft attacks such as phishing and screen scraping. With fingerprint,
Bluetooth proximity, protected PIN, location, and facial recognition, there are plenty of options for policy customization on PCs.
For consumers, adding biometrics plus hardware-based security makes it both easier and safer to buy online. Intel is working with partners to enable secure fingerprint touch to pay and Secure Guest Checkout, which provides hardware-level data protection3 to better verify that you are you.
Intel is also working with Password Manager providers to provide simpler and more secure web login to online sites and services through password manager applications that take advantage of Intel security hardware. These password managers can take advantage of Intel® Software Guard Extensions to manage passwords with access through a protected master password that is secured in hardware.
Use of two-factor authentication defeats a vast number of attacks targeting online user passwords. Intel® Online Connect provides consumers with hassle-free, built-in, two-factor authentication for Dropbox* and other industry-leading online services.
