Hmm. The desktop I'm using right now has an i7 in it and I do everything with it. Hmm.
- stackghost 6mo agoNot sure what your two "Hmm"'s are implying, but the i7 label has been reapplied to newer chips as time goes on, which is why I specified it was a Sandy Bridge-era chip.
- wkjagt 6mo agoWhich generation? Just i7 by itself doesn't mean much. I think the newest are like 14th generation? The X220 is only 2nd generation ("Sandy Bridge"), about 15 years old.
- assimpleaspossi 6mo agoIntel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz (3403.48-MHz K8-class CPU). I think that's Ivy Bridge. I just don't pay attention. I think it's a year newer with a smaller die.
- wkjagt 6mo agoOh yeah that's not so recent either, but it helps that it's a desktop version. Yours has 4 cores, whereas for example my 7th gen i7 (Kaby Lake) laptop only has 2.It's about 10 years old, but still enough for everything I use it for. I am always impressed how much you can do with older hardware.
