Doing Microsoft Mexico store the main laptop advertised was
Procesador Intel® Core™ i5 de 10.ª generación: 1035G1
That is from 3rd quarter 2019 so this shows that even with Microsoft as there main computer for sale they are trying to sell something that is 2 years old reasonable for them to be shown as the latest hottest item thus they are not even giving intel i7 7700k 2 years of life from newest hottest item to shelf to obsolescence on to dell and acer..

Keep in mind these are the major retailers not the small guy and the main thing that they want to sell to the customer their hottest item not their oldest item .
For dell possibly Canada typed dell.ca but was redirected I get:
Intel® Celeron® Processor N4020
This is late 2019 thus exactly 2 years old not more but that still shows the i7 would be discontinued within two years of sale from their hottest item to garbage…

- SixpieceOct 24, 2021Iron ContributorMy final comparison is the Acer France market… what is hottest item they recommend and the production date of the processor versus minimum sale price to be their hottest item for sale not their oldest item for sale…. So it could technically be from a major retailer less than 1 year before hitting obsolescence…
Porsche Design Acer Premium Collection Ordinateur portable ultrafin | AP714-51GT | Argent
Nice Porsche name 🙂
Processeur Intel® Core™ i7-1165G7 Quad-core (4 cœurs) 2,80 GHz
Which shows up on Intel at q3 2020 so 1 year old…
Thus to conclude there is a very real possibility that although production date on i7 7700k was in 2017 , 4 years ago, that people bought their computer from a major big box retailer in anywhere from less than a year ago to 3 years as the latest hottest item and are told almost very quickly that there computer faces obsolescences and end of life… in other words there is a probability that these computers were sold to consumers as new somewhere between 1 and 3 years ago and not by the production date that was 4 years ago.
