Intel\u2019s 8th-generation of mobile processors have been implemented in a number of products across both professional and gaming line-ups.<\/p>\n

Due to their increased core count and performance, these chips bring a big boost in processing power compared to previous generations of mobile CPUs.<\/p>\n

The increased efficiency in the low-energy processors also means that manufacturers can cram more powerful hardware into a slim and portable chassis.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve rounded up five of the coolest new laptops using Intel\u2019s 8th-gen Core processors, listed below.<\/p>\n
