Comparison of Intel processors
Intel processors list
As of 2016, the majority of personal computers and laptops sold are based on the MacBook family remains exclusively x86), while other categories—especially high-volume mobile categories such as smartphones or tablets—are dominated by ARM; at the high end, x86 continues to dominate compute-intensive workstation and cloud computing segments.

What is hyperthreading? Hyperthreading is a feature that allows each CPU core to emulate two cores at once, or threads. On some Xeon Phi processors, Intel supports four-way hyperthreading, effectively quadrupling the number of threads. Prior to the Coffee Lake architecture, most Xeon and all desktop and mobile Core i3 and i7 supported hyperthreading while only dual core mobile i5's supported it. Post Coffee Lake, increased core counts meant hyperthreading is not needed for Core i3, as it now replaced the i5 with four physical cores on the desktop platform. Core i7, on the desktop platform, no longer supports hyperthreading; instead now higher performing core i9s will support hyperthreading on both mobile and desktop platforms. Prior to 2007 and post Kaby Lake some Intel Pentiums support hyperthreading. Celerons and Atom processors have never supported it.
