Which Computer Generation Is the Latest?

Intel releases a new generation of processors every year or two, and each generation brings higher core counts, faster clock speeds and better power efficiency. The newest Intel generations are available in many computer types. The Thinvent range on this page uses an older generation, the 7th Generation Intel processor family.
