The Intel 8088 (and its big brother 8086) processor was among the first microprocessors to implement (instruction) prefetching in hardware, which [Ken Shirriff] has analyzed based on die images ...
Intel is a name that's almost synonymous with the CPUs that power some of the best PCs and best laptops around today. Alongside AMD, Intel dominates a market that many argue it first cornered 45 ...
Xeon or Pentium chip. Also known as an "x86-based system." The x86 designation comes from the first PC, which used the Intel 8086 chip. The 8086 is the ancestor of all that followed: 286 ...
The emulator can seemingly recreate an Intel 8086 processor, along with essential PC hardware, with enough accuracy to boot and run a stripped-down version of the Linux kernel. A programmer known ...
A year later, in 2018, Intel celebrated the 40th anniversary of its iconic 8086 processor by launching the limited edition Core i7-8086K. This 6-core/12-thread CPU was Intel's first to reach a 5.0 ...
The brains of the PC is a central processing unit (CPU) made by Intel or AMD (Advanced Micro Devices). It stems from the Intel 8086 (x86) architecture in the IBM PC in 1981. Following is a brief ...
Intel has opened its promised 'sweepstake' today, giving 8,086 people around the world the opportunity of winning a 5GHz Core i7-8086K CPU. The competition is being held to celebrate the 40 th ...
