Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Intel has been on the i3, i5, i7 naming scheme for a while though. I think the oldest ones are probably ~15 years old at this point.

    i7 just marked their top of the line consumer products until they introduced the i9 in 2017. First models were introduced 2008, but I think the mobile versions came in 2010.

    So yeah 15 years is pretty close.

    Nah there were mobile i7s released in September 2009 (though how long they took to ship in actual hardware, dunno.)

    Ah, good find, I just skimmed Ark and didn't see anything before Q1 '10.

    The 2700K i7 came out 2011, were there any i7 before that?

    Edit: yes there were. Like the 800 series.

    13 years old i7-2600 still going strong here.

    [–] Valmond 1 points 3 months ago

    I wonder how long it takes to buy a say thinkcentre m710 (<100€) with the electricity cost difference. IIRC the 2500-2600 were quite resource hungry.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

    Yeah I had the i7 7700k which was like 7 years ago, and with like 64GB of ram because I wanted to play with large ramdisks.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

    Yeah, my 2011 Macbook Pro has an i7. In computing terms, 13 years is an eternity.

    But yeah, it’s also got 16gb RAM and a 500gb SSD and runs Mint like a dream.
