Intel Core i7 is a family of several Intel desktop x86-64 processors, the first processors released using the Intel Nehalem microarchitecture and the successor to the Intel Core 2 family. All three current models and two upcoming models are quad-core processors.[1][2][3][4] The Core i7 identifier applies to the initial family of processors[5][6] codenamed Bloomfield.[7] Intel representatives state that the moniker Core i7 is meant to help consumers decide which processor to purchase as the newer Nehalem-based products are released in the future[8]. The name continues the use of the Core brand.[9] Core i7, first assembled in Costa Rica,[10] was officially launched on November 17, 2008[11] and is manufactured in Arizona, New Mexico and Oregon, though the Oregon plant is moving to the next generation 32 nm process.
i7 is faster
It think there is a difference of 40qm ! Lol
Intel core i7-920
the i7 920 has 2.67 GHZ with 4 cores and 8 threads, and the i7 940 has 2.93 GHZ with 4 cores and 8 threads. both can be overclocked easily. but if you are not planning on overclocking, the i7 940 is faster.
the i7 is better the i7 have 4 physical cores and 2 threads per core the core 2 quad have 4 physical cores and 1 thread per core. the i7 also have a technology called turbo boost to boost the performnce of single core apps

Intel core i7
Nehalem is the name of the architecture. The Intel Core i7 is a chip based on that architecture.
I think it's macbook pro Well it might be different of processer. ex. there is i3, i5, i7. i7 is the fastest is core i7. It might be different processer. If the inch of the labtop is 17 it's core i7
No.
Of course Core i7 860. It's 4-cores, 8-threads processor while Core 2 Duo is only 2-cores, 2-threads. Moreover i7 860 got 8mb of Intel smart cache memory.
The socket type that is required for the Intel Core i7 9xx desktop series is the LGA1366 socket.
