Intel's processor names already look ridiculous to me. Core i9-10980XE? Can't say that with a straight face, "normal" people seemed confused way back when Sandy Bridge got released
- Lammy 7y agoThey could do like NVIDIA and switch back and forth between two, three, and four digit model numbers every decade or so as the numbering scheme gets stale. I remember having a GeForce2 MX400, then a Ti4600, then a 8600, then a GTS 250, then a GTX 460, then a GTX 970, then a Quadro P4000, and now they seem to go for a hybrid scheme where they have the two-digit "16 series" or "20 series" containing four-digit models like 2080 :p
- ygjb 7y agoWhy is that a ridiculous name? It's from the Core X family of processors, is an i9 (which generally means more cores and cache than an i7), it's a 10th gen processor, which since 9th gen, also means that it has hyper-threading, as opposed to 9th gen and later i7s), and most importantly, as a product name is unique enough to make it easy to look up the technical specifications.
