How many heavy models have CPUs developed so far, and what is the difference in functionality?

The title is really ......O sea!

Since the day the CPU was born, the CPU has had N prototypes, some of which have developed into the CPU of single-chip microcomputers, some of which have become the CPU of consumer products, and some of which have become the CPUs used in today's computers.

8086 is the oldest version of the CPU used in today's computers, and now it seems that the performance difference has reached an unbearable point, but in the single-chip microcomputer, its performance is enough to support the stable operation of large machine tools. Then there is 80286, 80386, 80486, these three models of CPUs are the same whether they are Intel or AMD or IBM or something Until the Pentium series came out, everyone parted ways, Intel is called Pentium, AMD, IBM, CYIX have their own series, and it has been like this until now. The rest, including Texas, Motolola, etc., have been discontinued, CYIX was merged by VIA, and it is basically over, and China has also produced CPUs in the 21st century, but the technology gap is relatively large.

At the beginning of the Pentium era, Intel applied for a patent, so that the rest of the CPU companies could not imitate his CPU, and gradually, Intel and AMD left Cyix behind with their strong technical strength, so Cyix's Joshua CPU can be regarded as a swan song. I don't know how much better the copper mine and poison dragon of the same era are better than it, IBM has been committed to the CPU of the graphics workstation, and the famous Apple machine uses the CPU of IBM, but IBM has also been difficult in the past two years!

Now let's see what CPUs are there, starting with Pentium, P2, P3, Celeron, Celeron 2, Tualon Saiyane, Tualon Ben 3, Ben 4, and then I won't talk about it, there are more markets. AMD has 5x86, 6x86, poison dragon, athlon, and then am2 and other popular products now. IBM basically doesn't see loose chips on the market, and CPU models are hard to remember.

This is only a part of the CPU used in the computer, but also the Centrino for the notebook, the T2 for the mobile phone, the CPU for the PS2PS3, etc. So the sea is gone. I guess no one can complete you.

The model number is not clear. In short, now the CPU is the two camps, Intel and AMD

People who don't understand CPU tend to buy Intel. Only those who understand buy AMD

CPU performance is about the same now. The difference is just **.
