The generations are all fantasy type names in alphabetical order. The first was Alchemist (and the cards were things like A310) and the next is Celestial. Actually when I think about product names for GPUs and CPUs these seem above average in clarity and only slightly dorkier than average. I'm sure they'll get more confusing and nonsensical with time as that seems to be a constant of the universe.
- Workaccount2 2y agoCan't wait for Dungeon architecture.
- meragrin_ 2y agoDungeon architecture? What's that?
- sevg 2y agoLooks to have been a joke about the alphabetical naming: Alchemist, Battlemage, Celestial .. Dungeon (There’s no name decided yet for the fourth in the series.)
- pocak 2y agoThere is, it's Druid. Intel announced the first four codenames in 2021. > [...] first generation, based on the Xe HPG microarchitecture, codenamed Alchemist (formerly known as DG2). Intel also revealed the code names of future generations under the Arc brand: Battlemage, Celestial and Druid. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/newsroom/news/introducing-discrete-graphics-brand-intel-arc.html#gs.e4uo5u https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/newsroom/news/introd...

- spiffytech 2y agoDorky, alphabetical codenames are a big step up from a bunch of lakes in no obvious order.
- PaulHoule 2y agoYeah, with the way Intel has been struggling I thought they should get it out of their system and name one of their chips "Shit Creek."
- ReptileMan 2y agoIt has been 20 years since Prescott But the name is suitable still.
