2006–2008

Intel Core (2006)

After its trademark was first filed on September 15, 2005[1] (2-3 months before the associated rebrand was leaked and revealed), Intel launched the Intel Core processor brand in early 2006, and its logo was designed by FutureBrand.

2008–2009

Core06

2009–2013

2009–2011

Intel Core (2009)

Several months after the launch of the Nehalem microarchitecture (and the Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 processors, based on that architecture), all logos for Intel processors were updated (by FutureBrand), including the logos for the previous-generation Intel Core 2 CPUs. This logo—without any additional text—was used in the processor's logo animation encompassing all the processors in the series, a practice that has been followed with every successive logo in the series.

2011–2013

Intel Core logo

In 2011, Intel unveiled new logos for the "second-generation Intel Core processors", based on the Sandy Bridge microarchitecture (and these logos are also used for the Intel Core chips based on the Ivy Bridge microarchitecture, a.k.a. the "third-generation Intel Core processors"). Nehalem-based Intel Core CPUs remained with the 2009 logos.

2013–2014

Intel Core Haswell

In 2013, with the launch of the "fourth-generation Intel Core processors", based on the Haswell microarchitecture, new logos for this generation of CPUs were introduced. Sandy Bridge- and Ivy Bridge-based chips remain with the 2011 logos. Some PCs with Haswell on them may have the Broadwell sticker on them.

2014–2015

Intel Core Broadwell

In 2014, with the launch of the "fifth-generation Intel Core processors", based on the Broadwell microarchitecture, the font was changed. Haswell-based chips remain with the 2013 logos.

2015–2019

Intel Core 2015

In 2015, with the launch of the "sixth-generation Intel Core processors", based on the Skylake microachitecture, new logos for this generation of CPUs were introduced but the word "Inside" were replaced by the generation of the processor starting with Kaby Lake (7th Generation). Broadwell-based chips remain with the 2014 logos.

2019–2020

Intel Core 2019 logo

These logos are short-lived only for the use with the Ice Lake and Comet Lake chips. Skylake, Kaby Lake and Coffee Lake-based chips remain with the 2015 logos.

2020 (pre-launch)

Intel Core 2020 Prelaunch logo

This logo was used before the release of the 11th Gen processors. This logo can be seen in this video at 10:46.

2020–2023

Intel Core 2020 logo

This logo adopts their new Intel logo, a new typeface and different shades of blue depending on its Intel Core models. Ice Lake- and Comet Lake-based chips remain with the 2019 logos.

2023–present

Intel Core 2024

The logo was first used on Meteor Lake mobile processors launched in late 2023. Alder Lake- and Raptor Lake-based chips remain with the 2020 logos.
