Why Intel x86 will DIE sooner than you think! (RIP 1978-2022) | Max Tech | YouTube | July 3, 2021
Never did like the Intel architecture.
Always thought the 68XXX was better.
ARM is even cleaner.
Lots of legacy applications (devices + code) for the x8086. Don’t see it disappearing in my lifetime.
That probably should be Jobs instead of Cook pictured
NVDA is the new INTC
Don’t care what they replace it with as long I can still run my DOS applications...
Wow, it was on liberal youtoob so it must be true.
The new M1 chip is amazing and I agree that x86 has reached a performance plateau. But I would not count Intel out. They may need to design/modify a new processor (RISC-V?) but they have a reputation for outstanding performance architecture. And lets remember that “RISC processors will make x86 obsolete” took 30 years longer than predicted.
But in the meantime, the M1 chips are amazing.
My AX register has just been AX`D.
For gaming/simming, CISC chips are faster than RISC chips.
This crap started way way back when they would sell defective 2 core processors as single core by turning off the defective one. Perhaps this was OK initially but now it's so so so out of hand. You can not tell which instructions on any given Intel processor supports without a score sheet.
Instead of aiming for zero defects, Intel embraced the defects and sold them. That's a business plan ultimately doomed to failure.
Their biggest problem now is that they can not compete on the fabrication process level. Other fabs are eating Intel's lunch. Other fabs are churning out smaller, cooler, faster, more energy efficient processors.
Have always been a firm believer in RISC processors. The speed is fantastic. The chinese have embraced RISC-V architecture and are churning them out like mad. Obviously stolen from IBM in the 80’s, the RISC-6000 IBM series was a great platform.
Bring back the Z-80!
There was never any question that hardware platform compatibility between mobile devices and server / workstation systems was coming.
Anyone who gets in the way of that train is getting run over.
