I belive what we today see as x86 started with the 386, from 1985-ish. Not 8008 which is a completely different architecture and ISA.

Todays PCs run AMD x64, which some people call x86-64. But again this is a completely different beast compared to the good old x86. It was introduced in 2000 after Intels 64 architecture proposal failed miserably.
