A Micro Read about Microprocessors

The 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8086K processor is a limited edition 64 bit processor.  Why do you care?

  1. Introduced on June 8, 1978, the original 8086 was the first 16-bit processor and the first processor that ran the x86 instruction set.
  2. Your laptop most likely has a 64 bit processor, but the x64 chips can run stuff meant for x86 chips too.
  3. It has integrated graphics, which can help reduce total system cost if done right.
  4. It is limited edition.
  5. It comes in a cool box that we can let you keep.  Just never attempt to open your system, or damage could occur from accidental handling, which isn’t covered by us.  Just keep the box on a shelf to look at.
